I used Plaid's Colorshift Purple Flash, Dragonfly Glaze in Green & Gold, Glitterific Purple, Folk Art Treasure Gold and Turquoise acrylic paint.
The purple pumpkin got two coats of Colorshift in Purple Flash, drying time took a little longer but so worth it! I then used the Glitterific in Purple for the top of the pumpkin. I added Rita's Mermaid die cut with hot glue and then added the flowers.
I used purple roses and purple pearls to decorate throughout the pumpkin. The Colorshift and Glitterific looks amazing!
The turquoise also got two coats of Plaid acrylic paint in Turquoise. After it completely dried, I applied one coat of the Dragonfly Glaze in Green and Gold. After the glaze dried, I used a dry brush to apply the Folk Art Treasure Gold. I then added the gorgeous mermaid and scattered fabric, paper and resin flowers throughout the pumpkin.
I'm so loving how the mermaid theme pumpkins turned out!
