Honeycomb Sea Creatures

Good morning friends ~ The cards I'm sharing with you today are compliments of my dear friend Marcia, who sent me these adorable "Hey Honeycomb Fish & Crab" die cuts and the honeycomb balls that she got from The Greetery.  
 
These sea creatures were so much fun to make, and I simply mounted them on this fun underwater printed paper from Stampin' Up.
 
Now, there is a stamp from The Greetery that says "Peel ~ Open ~ Stick!", but I don't have that stamp so I simply wrote it myself with a fine tip copic marker.  The sentiment I used on the other half of the circle is from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I was so pleased that the sentiment fit perfectly on that half circle. 

Here is the fish card with the open honeycomb.  Is that cute or what??
 
 
 Here is the card I made using the Hey Honeycomb Crab.
I ended up having to hand write both sides of the circles.  My handwriting isn't that great, but it works in a pinch.
 
 
Eeep!  So cute!!  Thanks so much Marcia for the fun dies and honeycombs.  These were a blast to build!
 
I'll be adding one of these cards to the following challenges:
AAA Card Challenge #320 ~ "S" for Sea or Sea Creatures
 

Just Us Girls ~ Die Week 
 
 
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes 
 Four Seasons Challenge ~ Anything Goes Summer
 
Thanks for stopping by!

I do love that crab and fish, Birgit - your handwritten sentiments are just perfect to add an even more personal touch! But wowzers! are those papers just the greatest or what?? someone needs to create a stencil of the seaweed, don't you agree?

Oh my gosh ... these are both so adorable Birgit!! You have the perfect background paper. Those are so cool with the honeycomb balls. LOVE interactive cards. :) xx

Birgit, these are such cool cards! I love the honeycomb edition on each of them. It’s certainly a brilliant idea to put “peel – open – stick” on each of them. The next time I see some honeycomb accessories I will definitely keep this in mind. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful talents with us at Word Art Wednesday!
