Hello friends. Did you know that
Maine is
globally recognized as a premier lobster destination, producing over 90% of the United States lobster supply? Personally, I love the taste of lobster and I always enjoyed having my birthday in July. My family would often have a lobster cook out to celebrate my birthday. So this card, which I made can be either masculine or feminine, but it leans more masculine to me. The details on this lobster die are amazing. I paired this crustacean cutie with Elizabeth Craft Designs Seashell and coral dies. The sentiment is also from ECD.

What an AWESOME card Birgit!! I love the detail on that lobster...he really looks real!! And a perfect masculine card too!! Memories of your birthday eating lobster sounds fun (even though I'm not a real seafood fan)...hope you get some this Summer too!! Hugs. :0)
Your card is so wonderfully cohesive Birgit - it’s not everyone who could make a lobster shine as you have! I enjoyed reading a bit about it all, Nancy J, inkblocks :o)
Birgit, you know I had several lobster meals when we visited last Fall - I love it so much! Your lobster is handsome and your card design is fabulous, too!

Cute card, perfect sentiment too! Thanks for joining us at Sunday Stamps, hope to see you again soon!
I actually did know that, we are second lol Can't go wrong with a Maine or Cape Cod Lobster--that's for sure! This card is delightful and delicious! Such a great design and I love the lobster dies! YUM!!!
Great color choices, Birgit and I like the shiplap background! Fabulous card!
Wow that is a great ocean themed card, that lobster has such great detail to it too, sounds like you have great memories of your birthdays!
What a cool die!! Thanks for playing along with our "Oval Things" sketch challenge over at Sunday Stamps!! I love the way you used our sketch on your lobster card!! Deb Horst, DT #SSC382
That lobster is absolutely fabulous! I love every detail of your card, including the wood plank background. It all goes so perfectly together. I knew a lot of lobster comes from Maine, but I did not know it was 90%! I don't get much fresh lobster here, but I sure do enjoy the crab and razor clams -- yum!
OH WOW ... what a fabulous creation Birgit! Love the ocean colors & elements! Lobster isn't one of my favorites ... probably a good thing with the cost of lobster & crab these days lol. But I do LOVE this card and glad to see you still crafting as time permits! Miss You!
