Sea Turtle Birthday!

 I love Sea Turtles!  Okay...I love the ocean and sea life in general.  But I think turtles are so cute, graceful, and just are so peaceful!  I love the peace I feel whenever I am lucky enough to be in their presence.  💗  This makes me VERY happy Stampin' Up! has a Sea Turtle Stamp Set in their Annual Catalog! I have a dear family member that also loves sea turtles, so I made her this card to celebrate her birthday! 

Colors Basic White, Coastal Cabana, Soft Sea Foam, Crumb Cake, Gold
Inks: Soft Sea Foam, Coastal Cabana, Black, BLENDS: Dark Pool Party
Cardstock/Papers: Basic White, Coastal Cabana, Crumb Cake, Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper
Stamps: Sea Turtles, Happy Labels
Tools:  Water Painter
Accessories: Metallics Embossing Powder, Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls     

Just a few notes on some of the details of the card:

  • I took a strip of Coastal Cabana cardstock and drew some lines on it with the Dark Pool Party Blends Marker.  Then adhered that to the right of the watercolored wash piece. 
  • Stamped & embossed the turtles in gold onto Vellum Cardstock and then cut them out.  I adhered them with mini dimensionals to give them some depth but you can still see the background behind the embossing because of the vellum.  
  • A watercolor wash background is always a good idea! 😊  I used Soft Sea Foam and Coastal Cabana for this wash.
  • I ♡ the Flat Adhesive-Baked Pearls.  They add such a fun detail! 



Thank you for visiting!  Please let me know if you have any questions!  Would love to help you with all your papercrafting needs!

I can’t believe this. A great testimony that I must share to all HERPES patient in the world I never believed that their could be any complete cure for HERPES or any cure for HERPES, I saw people’s testimony on sites of how DR Afrid prepares herbal cure and brought them back to life again. I had to try it too and you can not believe that in just a few weeks I started using it all my pains stopped gradually and I had to leave without the HERPES DRUGS the doctor gave to me. Right now I can tell you that for a few months now I have not had any pain, delay in treatment leads to death.
