Semi masculine with a wobble!

Hi All! Today I have a great card using the fun stamp set Turtley Awesome designed by Rachelle Anne Miller for My Favorite Things. We think turtles are pretty cool, and this stamp is no exception. I did not intend for this to be a ‘masculine’ card, but it kind of worked that way. The sentiments with the floating turtle are great, they give you lots of options of where the card can go! Now, on with the show and tell…

Since my little turtle buddy is floating by I attached him with a wobble.

I kept my turtle in greens, then picked up the patterned paper colors for the balloons.

Are you impressed that I have finally used a stencil?! LOL I AM!!!

A great design by Christy of Tiddly Inks

Good morning all! I have a super sweet girly card for you today. This stamp set has been sitting in my “new stuff” box for a while. I try not to file new stamps til I have used them at least once. Most of the time this works 😉 But anyway, I finally got to this one, and she was so fun to color! I did a little assembly video also! On with the show and tell…

Her hair was the first thing I colored since I wanted to do it in black. I love the pop of blue in this combo, but was not sure how it would look on the bee body. I liked it! Did you?
