Today I'm playing along with both the Just Us Girls Challenge and Color Hues!
I used a retired Text+Texture Ocean stamp from PTI for the background using Crushed Pistachio and Worn Lipstick.
I stamped the Octopus from Sea Life by Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous (Simon Says Stamp just came out with the dies for the Sea Life Set and I've ordered it but I had to fussy cut the octopus today.
The sentiment (which absolutely CRACKS ME UP!) is a single stamp - Octopus Face from Technique Junkies. It includes an image of an octopus but I didn't ink that part. (I'm not sure if they are still in business)
I did use Old Paper Distress around the edges to soften the white card base and sentiment.
