Mermaid with Sea Turtle

Hello crafty friends!

Today starts a new challenge at The Paper Nest Dolls! I am using "Mermaid with Sea Turtle" for my card today because it's such a fun and beautiful image. She is also available as a Digital Stamp. I hope you like my creation! Here are some details about the challenge which can also be found on the Challenge blog: 

We have changed the way we will be awarding prizes from now on, and there will only be one prize for the overall winner.  The top 3 will still be named and will still have the honor of displaying the Top 3 winner badge on their blog.  From now on, the overall winner will win a Paper Nest Dolls digital image!  So, if you are the overall winner, be sure to send a message to papernest.challenges@gmail.com with your choice of image and indicate in the subject line that you are the Monthly Winner.  
Remember, the challenge here is always Anything Goes :)

I colored the image as usual and trimmed with my Tim Holtz/Tonic Studios Scissors. I used some dies from my stash to cut out the scalloped circles (CC Designs) and seashell border (La-La Land Crafts). The cardstock base is made by Bazzill Basics Paper manufactured by American Crafts. The patterned paper is from Echo Park Paper's "Let's Be Mermaids" 6" x 6" Paper Pad. The embellishments are from my stash, I can't recall the brand.
