Peachy Keen Challenge #30


Oh what fun it is to be in the sun, especially if you are a crab on this beach. This Peachy Keen shadowbox challenge was a blast to create! A shadowbox is great for creating a lot of dimension. This photo doesn’t show the dimension as well as real life, because there were awkward glares and weird shadows that occurred when I was trying to take this picture. I wanted to do a fun beach scene and I thought these crabs would be perfect to use. The PK-950 Under the Sea stamp set has both of the crab sizes in addition to other cute sea creatures. The crabs are full of life on the beach and are doing different activities! They are busy picking coconuts, playing with a beach ball, building a sandcastle, burying a fellow crab in the sand, getting suntan lotion put on, sipping a refreshing beverage, and floating in the waves. You can pretty much have these crabs do anything you want, because you can cut and move their claws into any position! You can let your imagination run wild with these crab stamps!
