swimming turtles

After a morning of working outside in the garden, my body is happy to be in my craft room and sitting down. I acheived a lot outside, but the price is aching bones and muscles.

Seize the Birthday # 304 has stenciling as their topping for this challenge. Fortunately, I had made a few stencil backgrounds last month so I pulled one out and created this card. I used my new StampinUP decorative masks and a stencil butter called Ocean Mist by TCW. I cut it down before adhering the main card. I also used a mop up piece of CS that I ran through a StampinUp EF and this was glued at the bottom. The seaweed was stamped using a GKD set and I fussy cut them. The turtles are from a photo printed on photo canvas that didn’t print properly, so rather than throw it away I fussy cut them and used them here. I like the textured look they give. Sentiment is from a new dollar store set by Forever in Time and embellishment is from Waffle Flower.

Thanks for stopping by, your time and comments are always appreciated.

  1. Such a fun and fab underwater scene, Johanna! The stencil worked so well to replicate water with the shine and shimmer. Thanks for sharing with us at Seize the Birthday.
