the latest artwork, Mermaid, my daughter sketched

of the card which you can see below in the challenges

Used blue shades which is one of my fav color.
Used some Dolphin beads from a bag of beads that I
bought at JoAnns quite some time ago that were
clearanced priced for $1.
I won the K Andrew Pirate Tales and Fish Scales stamp
set that I used for sentiment: tales of a mermaid.
