I love Mermaids, and this was so much fun, tho I worked on it for hours today! The BG is watercolor paper, with some Distress paint slopped on, then spritzed with water.
It doesn't show, but I made my own shimmer mist with Perfect Pearls, and spritzed that over the paint. Found the image on the internet, love it. She's admiring her new found gems in the mirror. I fussy cut the image, fish from Digital Collage, added some EP to the shells, and then the bling. I ran a strip of magic tape across the bottom to hold sand from our trip to Virgin Gorda, BVI. The words came from a rubber stamp I have, but they were too large, so I printed them myself, and I think that's about it! TFL.

This is one I'd like to see in person. I bet there is a lot of dimension and texture that the photo just doesn't capture. I like that you included sand from a personal trip.
