I get so CRABBY....

I have another nautical card that I made using a Tim Holtz crab stamp along with a sentiment from TLC, Create.  I added a couple of punched images of an anchor and crab.

May the BEACH be with you!

For this card, I created a background for the beach girl using watercolor paper and Distress inks.  I blended them and then sprayed them with water.  I added Glossy Accents to the sun glasses and beach ball.  I distressed the sentiment.  I took some pictures of my friend's granddaughter and her cousin on the 4th and I will be giving them a card.

Mojo Fish Card

I made this masculine Fish card using a stamp that I got from Unity Stamps called Best Fishes.  It has wonderful sentiments for Father's Day, but my Dad is not a fisherman.  I have several Uncles that are so they will get the card; however, I knew that I will put the sentiments to use at some point.  I added an anchor and a couple of bling to finish off the card.

I love the Mojo Monday sketch and I grabbed one of  my Verve stamp sets and decided to use that and then I pulled out my Die-namic dies that matched.  I made this for a friend of mine.
