Jaded Blossom: HOLY CRAB, IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!

 Happy Friday everyone! My latest card for Jaded Blossom features this adorable crab from the Gnome Dies: Beach Add Ons. I fell in love with this awesome fella as soon as I saw him! The great thing about the Add-ons is that there are so many dies that can be used on their own without using the gnomes. So even if you aren't a gnome lover (GASP!), you can still purchase the sets for the accessory dies. When I saw the sentiment "Holy Crab! It's Your Birthday!" that's part of the Ahoy Gnomie Stamp Set, I knew I wanted to create a beach scene with a bunch of crabs.

I cut the crabs from watercolor paper and used Spectrum Noir Aqua Markers and a paintbrush to color them. Next, I added dots on the body with Copic Marker R17 and used a black multiliner to add the eyes. To create the white scallop card base, I used Scallop Rectangle Dies 1. The sand paper is a digital file. 

Remember, you have until August 5th to play along in the Jaded Blossom Anything Goes Challenge for a chance at winning a free stamp set! You don't have to have a blog to play along. You can load your card to the JB Facebook Group and then add your link using Facebook. There are instructions HERE to help you! 

 

And be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom Store for all your stamps and gift giving supplies. They have various Cutting Dies to make party favors along with Favor Bags and Boxes. 

Have a great weekend!
