King Crab

The crab found a treasure chest and crowned himself king.  The background is matte paper painted with alcohol inks.  The mermaid is embossed vellum applied to white cardstock and embellished with microbeads.  I used a branch paper punch to create the sea plants by punching black cardstock then coating it with microbeads.  I used a hole punch to punch black cardstock and painted it gold to create coins.
