LOC CHallenge #78 and DT CALL

The new Challenge #78 at LOC has the theme "Distress it"

Our super sponsor is Bugaboo

And I used a recent Friday Freebie

Crab with Beach Ball

It's ages since I did some 'Emboss Resist' - so that is what I decided to play with today...

I started with a Lost Coast Designs Background stamp - Crackle -

 and stamped it with Versamark.

I then added clear embossing powder and set it with my heat gun. I then die cut a couple of shapes and added Distress Ink - 'wild honey'.

Having trimmed this to size and added 'rusty hinge' Distress Ink to the edges. I began to assemble my card. The background was matted and layered onto white card and a yellow card base.The crabs were coloured with Promarkers.

Finally I added some googly eyes...hope you like it!

I will link this to Pile it On - Cute Animal
Inspiration Destination #33

I would like to announce a DT CALL...
