Berry Lobster - Stampin' Up! Ocean Friends

   I think I'm about halfway through all the Stampin' Up! colors and seeing what they look like as a crab or lobster!  Today's color is Berry Burst compliments of the CAS Colours & Sketches challenge.  They have us using Berry Burst, Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lime Twist for a clean and simple card.  I do have several layers on my card but I did keep a lot of open space so for me this one is CAS.

 I started with Berry Burst for the card base then used a large panel of Basic White for building up my elements.  I cut the one edge with the wavy die in the Ocean Friends die set and edged that with a strip of Lemon Lime Twist.  

  A large bit of coral/seaweed was die cut from Granny Apple Green and added to the corner.  The full die cut is quite a bit bigger than what I used but I didn't want it to fill the whole panel so I trimmed off a good portion and then adhered it to the corner.

  And now for the glorious Berry Burst lobster.  The outline layer is full strength ink and the fill in is stamped off once.  I'm beginning to think of the lobster and crab in this set as I do flowers; they can be whatever colors I want regardless of what they actually look like in nature!  It's more fun that way right?

  The sentiment is stamped on a scrap of Basic White in Granny Apple Green and popped on dimensionals.

  I had the perfect embellishments with the Iridescent Adhesive-Back Discs so I added some to the coral/seaweed in Granny Apple Green and a few above the lobster in Berry Burst.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
