Tacky Tuesday Guest Designer!

Have you ever checked out Tacky Tuesday's?  It is all about puns.  This challenge is to use the word "sea" on your card and use a cut to go with it from any cartridge.  I was so excited when I got home and found my new Splashtastic Summer stamps by K Andrew had come in.  They were perfect to go along with this challenge.

I had no sentiment with the word "sea" in it so I created my own using Chomas Creations gel pens in my Cricut.  Have you tried that yet?!  I just got them recently and love that I can create any sentiment I want because I have cool pens and a pen holder for my Cricut.  

The sun is cut from Wild Card, the octopus is from Life is a Beach, and the "Sea" you soon sentiment was written with Lyrical Letters.
Sentiment is from K Andrew's Splashtastic Summer set

Done with Amy Chomas gel pens and pen holder in my Cricut

Faces are Peachy Keen.  Embossing is done with my Big Kick.
 



  Challenges:
Fantabulous Cricut- include a sun on your project
Paper Creations and Ink- beach theme
Sentimental Sundays- summer
Sparkles Forum Challenges- At the beach
Stamptacular Sunday- fun in the sun
Card Cupids- summer

  1. Cute card! I had no idea about using gel pens with the Cricut! Wow, I really must start paying more attention to my Cricut newsletters! Good luck in the challenges! I really like the pun challenge, what a fun idea, and you did it perfect!
