  5. Wow! She is GORGEOUS! I love the color palette you used as it is more non-traditional than what's expected. It adds such a pop to your scene and I wanted to meet this aquatic girl and get the name of her hairdresser! The subtle ombre effect of the scales in the background is so elegant and the whole thing came together beautifully. Thank you for sharing such an amazing piece with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
