ATCS For All - Mermaids

I had good ideas for the Mermaids swap but time ran away with me again – must try to be better organised next year!  
Some hope!!!

I drew out the tail of my mermaid card – ‘missed her’.  

Then I needed one sitting on a rock and one swimming by.  I managed to find pictures on line portraying these subjects so used them as inspiration.



I watercoloured the mermaids, seaweeds, seafloor and fishes, then realised I should have painted the background first!!! 
  


I decided to spray the finished, dried cards with a gold spritzer and then, when that had dried, sprayed with a blue one. 


The result was good, very shimmery - which was not good for photographing, but I still popped them in an envelope and posted them off to our hostess. 


I hope they arrive in time.
