Turtle Friends card idea featuring Expressions in Ink designer paper by Patty Bennett www.PattyStamps.com

My grandma loved turtles.  They retired to the high desert in Southern California in the 1960’s and I remember visiting many times a year and walking the 3 acre property with my grandma to visit the turtles every morning.  She fed them lettuce and cantaloupe and coaxed them out of their underground holes to say hello.  What a precious memory to have – and I know she “turtle-y loved” me and teaching me many things like cooking, card making, sewing, embroidery and quilting.  I wonder what she’d think about my card making blog now, 60 years later!?

So, as I created this card with the Turtle Friends bundle, I thought about my grandma and all the visits there.  I hope you enjoy this fun design featuring the Expressions in Ink paper, loose flower embellishments, Polished Pink ribbon and Checks & Dots embossing folder!

Doesn’t it look great to stamp the turtle onto the Expressions in Ink paper!?  It really gives the turtle shell so much texture and dimension, plus all the great colors without having to color!
