HDH Menacing Mermaids & D2D

I love how the Haunted Design House blog comes up with unique challenges every week.  It's always a lot of fun playing along, and this week was no exception. The theme is:

Here's what I came up with:
I used Syren from The Greeting Farm - colored her hair blazing red and her eyes a glowy-red, I was really going for a creepy, devilish look - how'd I do?  ;)  She's colored with Prismacolor markers and Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  I used 2 different colored glitters on her tail.  DP is from 7Gypsies - dontcha just LOVE that map paper?  And the musical notes with the word BEAUTIFUL - I can just hear Syren singing a creepy, lonesome mermaid song....  *sigh*  Eyelets & brads are from SU!

Next up is my card for this week's


I colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  DP is from My Mind's Eye, buttons from foof-a-la, ribbon is from my stash.  Peace.
