Turtle Fun - 6" x 6" One Sheet Wonder

Hi everyone, sharing 3 cards I made from one sheet of 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper.

I wanted to use the Neutrals 6" x 6" Paper Assortment and decided to use a sheet of the Pecan Pie pattern paper.  The stamp set and die set of my choice was Playing in the Rain as I wanted to use the little Turtle on my cards.

Next decision was what colour to make my Turtles?  Some research was done as I really had no idea what colour Turtles were. Well, they come in all colours, so I decided to colour my little Turtles using Pecan Pie and Crushed Curry Stampin' Blends to match the pattern paper.  A touch of Bubble Bath was added on the flowers.

I kept the embellishments the same, using the Nested Essential Dies for the stitched rectangle and the Stylish Shapes Dies for the sentiment circle.  Some Gold Brushed Metallic Dots and a Basic White Bakers Twine bow were added to finish the cards.

These are the 3 cards I made.

Card 1


For this card I cut one of the pieces of 3 1/2" x 3" pattern paper on the long edge into 1/2", 3/4", 1" and 1 1/4" strips.  These were adhered on top of a piece of Crushed Curry cardstock 2 3/4" x 4 3/8" that had been adhered to a Basic White cardbase.

Card 2


For this card I used the 6" x 2 1/2" piece of patterned paper.  There will be a small overhand, so just trim this off.  The Crushed Currey cardstock strip was 3/8" wide.  

Card 3


For this card I embossed a piece of Crushed Curry cardstock and adhere this to the card front on an angle.  The other piece of 3 1/2" x 3" piece of patterned paper was adhered on top of this, also on an angle.  The embellishment Turtle piece was adhered on top of this.
