Turtle

  Hello from design team member, Heidi.  Summer is here and bring on the beachy crafting!  One of my favorite stamp sets for this is I Brake for Stamp’s By the Sea Rubber Sheet.  It has fun images, especially this Turtle, in two sizes.

How I made this card was by first sponging blue ink over the center of my white card.  I used the same ink to stamp several of the little stamps on the back ground. I think I used the shell, the seahorse and the fish.  Then I splattered some water drops over top.


Second, I used a blue cardstock and die-cut it to a rectangle. I sponged the same blue ink around the edges here. I stamped and colored the turtle on white.  I trimmed it out.  I then added my sentiment and put the turtle right front and center.

I like to be able to mail flat cards, so I didn’t add anything else, but this card would look great with some knotted twin.

I hope you are enjoying your summer and summer crafting!
