A Turtally Awesome Day!

Hello!  I know I am late posting today.  And, on top of that, I don't have my usual forgotten stamp Friday card.  But, what I do have is two posts with two different creations for two different challenges. This week, I have been out in my "shack" more in the mornings instead of during the day.  It is just so HOT!  I do have an a/c unit in my shack but when it is over 100 degrees outside, well, I just don't want to even go.  I guess it is affecting my creative juices.  You think?  Anyway, the last two mornings I have been working on another honey pop card because Inky Antics summer challenge using any of the honeypops sets ends tomorrow.  I had one more set that I got at the scrapbook convention that I had not inked up yet.  It is the turtle set and it is sooo cute.  Let me show you how my card came out!  Enjoy!

If you need instructions, you can refer to my post here.  I love making these cards.  And I love the challenge of creating the insides. I like to create the pop-up scene, and also, pull some of the papers that I used on the front of the card, to the inside creation.  The green panel with the flowers I decided would work perfect as grass, especially when I used my grass die!  I love the sketch I used on the front too!  It is actually an old mojo sketch from 2009, no. 74.  I need to remember this one, as it is perfect for when you have a square image.  Do you like my turtally awesome card?

  1. Love the card but I love the little birds the best. I guess it's because I am bird-brained at times!
