C. AUSTRALIAN MERMAID6 HOURS
Katheryn and Judith of Adelaide create beautiful little bread dough mermaids, and Iíve used one to create a small collage of seashells, seed pearls, silk ribbon embroidery and beads. Framed in a Victorian frame, it makes a charming gift. The finished piece is 6 inches by 5 inches. It can be seen in my new card line as well as in the Arts and Inspirations book. This design could also be incorporated into a much larger design. Page 91 Art and Inspiration.
