Sea Turtle for The Paper Players 706

Welcome to a new week at The Paper Players! Elizabeth has fun, bright colour challenge for us this week.


With those bright colours, part of me wanted to go down the whole primary school road with maybe some numbers and some alphabets. However, that's not what happened once I sat down to craft. 

Instead, I found myself with Sea Turtle in my hands. 



The turtle is inked in Night of Navy, with some sponging around the edges which I applied with a blending brush. I used Boho Blue to stamp the water and for the card front because I wanted some contrast.


The square of DSP is from the Mediterranean Blooms pack. The starfish are stamped in Daffodil Delight. The fish and sea urchin are stamped in Real Red

The sentiment is from Garden Meadow and cut with one of the dies from Something Fancy.

We look forward to seeing what you do with these colours. You can see what the rest of the design team have done, and link up your entry, at The Paper Players page.

Here's a quick recap of our challenge rules:
  1. Create a new paper-craft project specifically for this challenge.
  2. Upload your creation to your blog with a link back to us.
  3. Please provide a direct link to the post featuring your challenge entry.
  4. Please link your card to no more than four challenges, TOTAL, including ours
  5. Have fun, and thank you for playing with us!
Don't forget to check out the great inspiration from the rest of the design team.

  6. Jan, this has to be the best card I have seen using this stamp set! The designer series paper really picks up the ptterns in the turtle. I love the little scene you've created with the starfish and bubbles. What a wonderful way to incorporate the challenge colors!
