This weeks Color Challenge is an ocean full of hues. Stef (dahlia19) issued the challenge to use Balmy Blue, Night of Navy, and Lemon Lime Twist. I couldn't resist trying to coax these colors out of my set of Brushos! It was fun moving the puddles of water from side to side to get the dreamy underwater scene. I hope the small liberty I took with my crashing ocean waves behind my 'fella', will be seen as artistic license! I used a Crafter's Warehouse Wave Stencil.
My searching for love 'fella' is looking far and wide for the calling of his heart. Little does he know below the surface, waiting, is the someone he is searching for. My mermaid is from an Oxford Impressions set: 'Mystical Mermaids' as are some of the marine animals. I used another OI set: 'The Deep' as well.
Over in the Ways to Use It, Toni has us using 6's on our cards. Well, I've got 6 gifts from the sea, the Blue whale, a lemon lime seahorse, and two different fish, one gigantic transport horse fish, and the mermaid. I also used 6 gold staples and 6 blue staples. Come on 6's was a fun challenge!
Thanks for stopping by...I appreciate your comments so very much. Have a wonderfully creative day~o.

Susan, you are amazing! This scene is spectacular. The foamy look you've got at the top of the water with your brushos is so fabulous. And everything about this card is so magical and surreal. You've transported me to another world. Congrats on being the cc fave. Good thing or I would've missed this awesome card!
