Under the Sea

Here's a big 8x8 card I've made with an under the sea theme.  The Mermaid digi stamp is from Saturated Canary and I've coloured her with Promarkers then gone wild on her tail with Cosmic Shimmer glitter glue in Twinkling Apple and Twinkling Sky Blue and Diamond stickles.  The bubbles were done with Liquid Pearls.  The shell digi stamp is from A Passion For Stamps, again coloured with Promarkers and glittered with Cosmic Shimmer glitter glue in Autumn Twinkles.
I've embossed some shimmery paper with a Cuttlebug folder (thanks for the loan of it Ali!) and layered it onto green satin board.
The sand backing paper is some scrapbooking paper I've had for ages.  The blue pearl paper is from Create and Craft and has been punched with a Martha Stewart border punch. (Thanks for the loan of that too Ali!)
I've then just added some ribbon, a bow, gems and glass nuggets along with some seaweed cut on my Cricut and highlighted with glitter glue.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Papertake Weekly - water, water everywhere
Party Time Tuesday - #63 - water
Digi Makeover - #31 - bright colours
