Happy Wednesday, peeps! My card today started to be a birthday card for a little boy, but somehow the colors just didn't jive with an active five-year-old! SO it will be a card for one of Cassidy's friends...or maybe for her! I used the sketch from Mojo Monday; the Nautical theme challenge from Global Design Project and happily, it qualifies for Stamp Ink Paper's Punny or Funny challenge:
So here we go!
Remember this set? I was going through some of my really old stamps and thought this Crab & Company set would be cute for a child's birthday! I stamped the crab in Watermelon Wonder and watercolored it loosely with WW and Soft Sky inks. I stamped a few of the beachy elements and watercolored them as well and added some sweet little sequins and ruched ribbon!
I mounted it on a Soft Sky card base with some By The Shore DSP strips, and added a little banner and a "6" from the Numbers die set! And here's the inside:
This just makes me smile!
Another thing that makes me smile....green pepper moustaches!
Oh that child! And a couple more birthday cards (told you I got a lot!). This pretty one is from Bonnie:
And this gorgeous regal-toned one is from Alison:
Thanks for stopping by today!
