Lizzie Anne Sketch Challenge #24- Card

Hi there, I'm back with my card for this week's sketch challenge. I thought our new "By the Sea" set would be perfect for the twist...having something to do with summertime. I have to say, I just adore the little crab! Isn't he the cutest?! When Tricia showed me her initial drawings for this set, I about fell off my chair. I fell in love with the cute little crab! So, of course I had to make sure he made an appearance on my card. :) For the blue strip on the card, I stamped the bubble stamp with Versamark several times to create a patterned paper. For the darker green strip, I stamped "going coastal" with Old Olive. For the mermaid, I stamped her with Ranger Black Soot Distress ink, and then colored her in with my Copics and Prismacolor pencils. I did the same with the little crab. I hope you've are having fun with this sketch. Did you see what Joslyn and Jeni have done? They are super cute!!!!
