I am so excited to share a card I created using one of Samantha Peyton's wonderful stamp sets called Turtle-y Awesome! I don't know why but I just love turtles. I had one as a kid.... but it didn't live long. I think I am trying to be a better parent by making a nice home for them on my cards. I do think turtles are great. One thing that is on my wish list is to swim with the turtles in Hawaii. I tried to do that on a vacation but rain and strong winds made us turn the boat around. It is on my list for my next vist! You can bet on it! :D
Copics Used:
Turtle: G28, YG63, G40, B000, B93, W3, W5
Pebbles/Grass: W5, W3, W1, YG63
Background: BG0000, BG00, BG10, G000, W1, Colorless Blender, Opaque White Ink
Paper:
Cryogen for focal image (Curious Metallic, Inc)Green from my stash
Designer Paper : All About A boy - Curious Paper (Echo Park)
Flowers cut from a beautiful designer paper from SP & Company.
I had some gorgeous floral designer paper from SP & Company and I cut two flowers out. I curled by second flower with a quilling tool and arranged it on top of my first flower to add dimention. I added a pearl to the center
Don't you think the little flower came out cute? I love the little sentiment that comes with this stamp set. I have a friend that is having a birthday coming up so I selected the birthday sentiment. I really love the background designer paper as well.... All About A boy - Curious Paper (Echo Park)

I love the colors on this card! The blue and green color combination looks great, and I like the pop of color from the flower, it makes a nice contrast. You did a wonderful job with the coloring of this sweet image too!

P.S. Last trip to Hawaii--we got to see a beached sea turtle--took lots of photos! And I got to photograph one under water, which was swimming toward me. We always seem to be around them when we go snorkeling over there! Hope you get the chance too! :^)
Cute card! I love what you did with the flower. I have this stamp but haven't used it yet.
