OH NO Mr Crabs is back in town .. OK actually he never left .. Not EVER !!! NO matter what .. I thought with it being my most favorite day of the week ( Sunday and all ) I had to share Mr Crabs being he is my Most favorite set for this whole mini quarter time
.. Love live MR Crabs But I think he may be hitting the boiling pot soon .. POOR MR Crabs
.. All I can say is you have until the end of this month to Get Mr Crabs in your collection Before he turns into Crab legs Hee! Hee!
I am really tired this morning, This may explain my sense of humor with Mr Crabs . I didn't get home from My Eastsiders club until almost 11:00pm last night Had to HURRY and get the goods in to make sure they were still ok on the Retired accessory list to purchase ..( OH How I hate that when we have a limited time on things don't you girls ?) Thank goodness only 1 thing was gone ..( I mean not that its a GOOD thing, ya know? But good That it was ONLY 1 thing )Gee whiz ...I told you I was tired But I hope that made sense ( sleepy
) .. OK I need to get the blood flowing and wake up, Cause some exciting news today .. Today is the day we are taking my Sunday school Kids out for Lunch to a play area we are going to this really Great Burger King by us and the play area ROCKS for them .. anyway This will be pretty much a all day affair we are leaving right after church and will be M.I.A until 4:30 pm Hee! Hee! I know this sounds silly But I am sooo excited about going ..
NOT that I will be doing the tunnels and slides BUT hey ya never know .. I will take some photos and share later .. the longest part of the day will be driving
there with all the excited kids in one vehicle
Can you say YIPPEE!! Good thing I know alot of church bus songs to keep them busy .. My Kids earned this day out cause they learned the New Testament books of the Bible ( song verison ) .. Remember I mention that~ OH my, back in Feburary .. Well the time has FINALLY come ..
I used watercolored crayons for the background on my Mr Crabs Card .I just scribbled on scrap piece of glossy CS with my water colored crayon and then I squirted the crayons on the glossy lightly with water and then used my fingers to pounce on the color and then transfered the color from my fingers to the BG of Mr crabs easy peasy huh? kinda reminds me of polished stone .. Maybe Its Faux Polished stone huh?
Thanks so much for stopping by and I will see you tomorrow.
Until later ... Happy Stampin!!
Your Crabby card is so cute!!! I'm so sorry he didn't make the cut (he should have...especially because Fishy Friends retired). I'm keeping him in my collection for a while, anyhow!
Have fun with the kids today! Can't wait to hear about it. ;)

I've loved all your Mr Crab cards. I'll bet he's on the dormant list.

I see, so it was from my order than the only 1 thing already sold out. go figure. glad you called me to pick out something else. i'll have to borrow someone's crayons to play, but would watercolored pencils work too?
