Sorry I Was Crabby...

...Oh if I had a dollar for every time I had to say that to someone. ;)

Happy Hump Day! Although it certainly doesn't feel like Hump Day to me, this week is flying by! It's already time for another challenge at Whimsical Designs - and this one sure is a fun one... it's all about SUMMER! 


There are SO many things that I love about this card - where do I begin?! Hmm. The super cute Handsome Hermit Crab is from our sponsor this week, Fresh Brewed Designs. I colored him with copics R22, R24, and R29, and placed him on the slider portion of the card (you'll see in pictures below how he's in different places).


The polka dot paper, clip, and buttons are all from the Down by the Shore collection by Fancy Pants. This is SUCH a fun collection, and so perfect for summer projects! I'm in love with the polka dots. :)


The "Sorry I was crabby" sentiment is from the Everyday Sentiments stamp set from Whimsical Designs.


And our lovely sponsor this week, Fresh Brewed Designs, is giving one randomly chosen winner of the challenge 3 digis of their choice!


Thanks for stopping by! :)

  1. Super fun card Ashley. I remember the first time I did a slider..it was a bit intimidating. I love this style card, and you did a great job. I agree about the polka dots..love those too:)

    1. Slider cards are actually super easy to make! I used a cut from the Silhouette store to make this one, but I've heard it can be done pretty easily by hand as well. :) You should give it a try!

    1. LOL! I actually texted a picture of this card to one of my good friends and told him I needed a stash of these just to give to him. ;)

  9. I reallllly like the slider card! I must look it up! I need this sentiment at some point everyday for my poor teenage son! He can really push my buttons when I didn't know they were already hot! Lol! Poor kid. He just walks into a storm sometimes with me...
