The Colour Green

 Its got round to that time again its the Ginger Loft new challenge The Colour Green. Being on the design team ,this was the image I decided to use Its is Mermaid Scene 2 I just love it  :). I have used pro markers to colour the image, then added H2O paints to give the tail a glisten (this doesn't really show up). I then used green distress ink to give it the watery look. The backing paper is a digi paper that I made using Serif Craft Artist. I then added the transparency to the paper to make it look like water.
Complimenting this with  some images of seaweed to make the setting more realistic. The image and backing paper were mounted on to green card from Stampin up, the card is an 8 inch square.  To finish the card I have used glossy accents to stick on dew drops which look like bubbles.

You included so many details in creating this underwater scene. I really like the dewdrops as water bubbles. They are the perfect finishing touch! Thanks for playing along in this week's Sweet 'n Sassy Digi Challenge.
