Silly Seahorse

The September Crafty Calendar Challenge begins today with the theme 'Add Lots of Layers'.  Our sponsor this month is 'Oddball Art' who kindly supplied the DT with digi images to work with.

I chose to use the cute Sid the Silly Seahorse digi stamp.  I coloured him with Promarkers and added Glossy Accents to his glasses.  I die cut the image with a Memory Box 'Stitched Circle' die.  For the background I used a Marianne embossing folder 'Ocean View' with white card.  I used a brayer to roller 'Peacock Feathers' Distress Ink over the raised part of the embossing and put the image in the middle.  The large mat is a Sue Wilson 'Double Pierced Square' die cut.  I used Memory Box 'Stitched Circle' and 'Pinpoint Scalloped Circle' dies for the sentiment, which is raised up on foam pads. 

The challenge ends on 28th September, so plenty of time to join in.  Please pop over the Crafty Calendar Challenge to see all the beautiful creations the DT have made. 

I am joining in the following challenges:
