Altered Moon Mermaid

Stamp: "Moon Mermaid" -Meredith Dillman's sheet 5 plate 99

I love this artsy mermaid by Meredith Dillman! For today's project, I used the new mega sized bottle caps from Maya Road. The new bottle caps are over 3.5 inches wide. Love! I cut an old plastic Prima flower cylinder in half and glued my colored image on. I used the large bottle cap as a base.

I used nearly all of the new Copic colors on the image. I drew up a quick reference chart for those of you wondering about the latest Copic color additions. The colors with the asterisks are new. The others are just for comparison. I tried to make sure the colors were as accurate as possible, but there may be variations. This is just to give you a rough idea.
