Hi Stampers,
I have been playing with our new Turtle Friends Stamp Set. I love turtles. My Mom used to collect turtles and when I was younger I had a slider turtle names Shelly. I used to be a teacher and brought Shelly to school. She stayed in a center, where the children could see her. This was years ago before they banned them. Now when my sister and I see a turtle of any kind, even jewlery, we think of our Mom who is no longer with us.
So when I saw this set I had to have it. It comes as a bundle with a matching punch, but I only used the stamp set today.
See all the supply list and instructions below. It was really easy to make and would make a cute Belated Birthday card.
Instructions: Cut Granny Apple Green cardstock 5-1/2″ X 8-1/2″ and score at 4-1/4″.
Cut Designer paper 4″ X 5-1/4″ and glue to the card base.
Use white cardstock and cut out a scalloped rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.
Stamp the smaller turtle and color.Stamp the hearts in Pale Papaya.
Color the sky with Balmy Blue ink using the Blend brushes. Color the grass in Granny Apple Green. Stamp the grass in Granny Apple Green ink.
Stamp the large turtle on another piece of white cardstock in Black Memento ink. Stamp the shell in Granny Apple Green ink. Color the hat with Pool Party and Paly Papaya Blend markers.
Cut out with paper snips, or you can use the coordinating punch and punch out the large turtle.
Cut out the hat and attach with mini dimensionals. Attach to the rectangle piece with dimensionals. Attach to the card base with dimensionals.
Stamp the saying in green and cut out with one of the tag dies. Add the circle from the dies in Pool Party to the hole with glue and tie white twine to make a bow.
Use Brush to add Balmy Blue to the edge of the tag. Attach to the card with dimensionals.
Cut white piece 4″ X 5-1/4 for the inside of the card. Stamp sentiment in Green and the streamers in Balmy Blue. Glue to the inside of the card.
