Freshly Made Sketches #694

Hello friends.  I've never been much into playing sketch challenges, but have to admit that may be changing as I'm really enjoying playing with the Freshly Made Sketches challenges lately.  The current challenge by DT member Judy got me to thinking quite quickly how clawsome my WF Inquisitive Crab Die would work with this sketch...

I did flip the sketch on its side (you're rubbing off on me Michele!!) and came up with this...

Aren't they FUN?!!  They really do crack me up and I've had so much fun playing with them!  (Definitely getting my money's worth with this set!!)  I started by using an older SB's embossing folder (Splish Splash) for my background and lightly inked it up using residual ink from my turquoise and blue blending brushes.  Next I used The Greetery's Crimped Circle Die for the center circle of the sketch from just plain white cs and then added the 2 crabs that were die cut from Real Red cs (SU!) with inking around the edges using Cherry Cobbler ink.

I added my background and crabs to a white card base and then finished with a sentiment from MFT's Just Beclaws stamp set that I embossed in white on a black strip and added foam behind for a bit of dimension.  Easy peasy, and in my humble opinion, super cute!!

Lots of awesome inspiration using this sketch from the DT that you can see right HERE, so check it out and play along.  This challenge is open till Monday, July 14th @ 3:00PM. 

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
