Under the Sea

Have you ever dreamed what it would be like to live under the sea? When I was a little girl I though it would be great to swim like a fish and explore the colourful reefs.  This was totally make believe since I lived in the Northwest Territories and we didn't have colourful reefs to even go look at.  The little strings on these girls outfits made me think of dressing up as mermaids and checking out the goodies in the water.  The whole image set is from KPM Doodles and is soooo cute! The paper is DCWV and cardstock is from my stash.
This week it's all about sentiments at Card Crafter's Circle and I couldn't find just the right sentiment in my collection to go with these fantastic girls so I paired two.  The Happy from Heidi Grace and the Friend from Fiscars.  For a different take I hung these wonderful sea goodies from ribbon, and added some glitter to the inked waves and the girls "tails".
Do you love sentiments? Please join us at Card Crafter's Circle and show us some of your favourite sentiments.  This week we have a wonderful sponsor - KPM Doodles!

This is so cute Jennifer! I never dreamed about living under the sea because I was afraid of the water! Now, I love it which is a good thing since my front yard is the lake! LOL
Hugs,
Renee

My favourite thing to do is swim. I love the feel of the water when I'm swimming and often overstay and come out all wrinkled like a prune. I love the waves on your card and especially love the colours you have chosen for your mermaids!! These seashells really finish off decorating the card, when you come to Australia we will go for a swim together!!!
Hugs Trish xx

so cute, Jennifer! When I was a little girl I had the same dream, I loved to be in the water and swim with the fish and even now the sea is something that touches me somewhere deep inside me! I must have been a mermaid :o)
