Summer fun! I think that mother nature is having hot flashes. I just can't take the heat. Give me rain and gloomy weather any day. I do hope that hot summer weather is to your liking. Looks like this will be the new normal. Summer Fun is the theme for this month. Here are our sponsors.

Two absolutely fabulous sponsors. Please go and show some love and say a big thank you. Without them no challenges would happen. Then what would we do?
So on to my creation. The image I have used is from The Paper Shelter and is titled The Little Mermaid On Vacation. When i saw this image back in June I knew I had to use it. Here is my creation. (it's a good one)
 |
| I have colored the body, hair and scarf with my Prismacolored Pencils. The card base is a medium sage green. Then I have added a white background. The picture of the ocean waves and the ocean behind the rocks are ones I found on the internet. I paper pieced her tail, added some seagulls and stuck on a sentiment I love paradise! |
 |
| Here is a better look at the background paper. I cut out the rocks from another mermaid image and placed them in the waves with a sign, Fog Horn's Bar and Grill, 5 Fathoms Below. |
 |
| Just a larger look. And in case you want to know, a fathom is 6 feet. |
 |
| Finally the back with my sticker and initial. |
I do have to tell you that I love the way this turned out. Now it is going to go live with my daughter. She was diagnosed with long Covid about 18 months ago. She has numerous health related issues that are not going to get any better. So anything I can do to cheer her up is mandatory being her mom. I hope this does get a smile.
So that's it for this August 2023. I'll see you again in September with another creation from Jana. So with heartfelt thoughts,
Stay healthy, Stay safe and know that you are blessed.
