Cute Turtle

I've never been one to really like turtles but lately I've seen so many cute stamps that are turtles, they are quickly becoming a favorite.
When I first saw this cute turtle on Stamping Bella, I knew he'd have to come home to my house. LOL! I mean a cute turtle AND a butterfly! Oh my!
I made this as a small little card to give to my friend, Jennifer, as a Just Because card because she also likes turtles....she actually has some in her backyard as pets! Of course my kids think that is WAY cool! LOL!


supplies:
card size: 4x4

stamps: Turtle,
paper: some from my scraps--I think it's Basic Grey
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black,
others: copics, nestabilities, SU mat pack, teeny tiny butterfly punch, grape stickles,

Also, just a note that my friend went back home last night, sniff-sniff, so I will be trying to get back into the swing of things over the next few days. Thanks for all the nice comments you all have been leaving! I hope to get around and start leaving comments again soon and such!!
