By the Cute and Girly - Fairy Tales

Here is my entry for this months By the cute and Girly Challenge where the theme is Fairy tales, so my Fairy tale is the little Mermaid, although this one is not very Disney - like, and much more like those in Harry Potter. All stamps are from Lavinia stamps on an inky background made by swirling distress ink pads on a craft mat and spritzing with water. I've added a few 'bubbles' with diamond stickles too. Thanks for looking. This card also fits the theme of the first Sir Stampalot Challenge of fantasy, where there are just four more days to enter, and the prize is awesome!
