Double D - Cute Animals

Hey there!  I'm glad you dropped by.

I don't have a lot of animal stamps but I do think the ones I have are cute.  Especially those from Gerda Steiner.  I mean how cute are these turtles?!  They're for the Double D challenge. 

They're stamped on Bristol and colored with Zigs.  Remember when we had those wood handled, long bristled brushes to color our backgrounds?  I still have mine from Clarity Stamps and used one for the soft blue sky on a panel cut with The Greetery's Crimped Rectangle.   The Distress Ink grass is an unbranded die and the sentiment is from Darkroom Door.

I'm slipping under the wire to get this posted so I'm off to Double D.

Twofer Challenge #20

The Twofer Challenge has a fun one this month.  

I mean who doesn't love critters.

In fact it took me a while to decide which critters to use.  You have to do two different designs for two different occasions and that's where I had trouble.  Finally an idea came to me

.Using Gerda Steiner turtles I made a get well and birthday card.

The images were colored with PolyChromos pencils and the backgrounds were made with Distress Ink.  The get well sentiment was computer generated to fit below the MFT dome die cut.

I also computer generated this sentiment although there is one similar in the stamp set.  The background was watercolored with masks for the clouds from SSS.

And there you have it, two cards for two occasions using the medium size turtle with friends.

Thanks for dropping by.  Have a turtley awesome day!
