There is another fun month long challenge happening at Deedee's Digis!  This is a progressive challenge, which means if you purchase the design one month and join the challenge, you automatically receive the next month's digi set for free!  As long as you join each month, you will automatically get next month's digi free.   You can get the current digi set two ways.....you can just purchase it for $1.25 ( and you get a lot....sentiments and pre-colored images, as well as a black and white image for you to color), or you can buy $10 worth of digs from the site and receive this set free!   There are such cute things there to pick from, so it is easy to spend $10!!
This turtle is just soooooo cute!

I colored the image with my Copic Pens, and did a fun stencil background that I learned in Marie Gamber's class Over at the CMC site!  This is such a great class!   Marie teaches you these wonderful background techniques that just make your images so much more interesting and complete!  Check it out!

I cut the image out using SB Oval Dies in several sizes.  I added some fun corner embellishments, cut the sentiment out and added Stickles to her "Party Shell", glossy accents to the balloon, and some sparkly flowers!  A bow and some rhinestones on the sentiment finished the front of the card.

The inside is the negative of the large oval cut, a SB butterfly, and a fun turtle border at the bottom.   There is a pale pink chalk distressing around the inside of the oval.

Be sure to check out this month long challenge at Deedee's Digis!

Thanks for stopping by!
