Faux Sand for the Caffeinated Crab with Video


Welcome back to the blog Rabbit Hole fans! 
It's Lisa here with you today from Oh So Cute By Lisa
and I have a fun card and video to share with you 
that features a new technique I recently learned.  
I have a way to turn plain kraft card stock
into faux sand!  It's so easy to do and so much fun!
I wanted to used the Caffeinated Crab on my card today and I thought
that the perfect backdrop for him was some beach sand!
I even filmed a short video to show you how easy the process is.

The card construction is pretty simple.
I stamped and watercolored 3 tired crabs and used my scan n cut to cut them out.
Once I had the crabs ready to go I also cut out 3 seashells to layer behind them.
My background cover die had lots of slits in it which was perfect for 
slipping my crabs behind.  I stamped #crabby next to each crab and the card was done!

Here is a closeup of the sand so you can see the detail.


See... easy peasy card construction but the fun part was the sand.
Here is a short video to show you how you can make your own!
You can watch it here or on YouTube.
