Hi friends,
I just received this cute turtle stamp from heffy doodle and had to play with it straight away.
Firstly I found this fab stamp by Mama Elephant called modern borders, it may be retired now, and thought the scallop would make a great looking sea. I used my tim holtz stamping platform to help stamp my ‘sea’ with Altenew inks in shades of blue.
Next I stamped my turtle with memento tuxedo black ink which is Copic friendly, fussy cut it and did some quick and easy colouring.
Then I trimmed down my scallop panel and used my tim holtz knife to create little flaps around the waves to tuck the turtle behind.
Then I stamped the sentiment also from heffy doodle using my mini Misti and added some birds from a lawn Fawn set.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
