Wednesday Sketch Challenge at SplitCoastStampers

I was SO into Valentine's Day cards and gifty things plus a swap I've got coming up on Sunday and a box challenge along with a few other things that I forgot about the Wednesday Sketch Challenge at SplitCoastStampers. I heard the chime telling me that I had email and I didn't look right away. When I got around to it I was glad I didn't look because I would not have finished what I was doing so I could play with the sketch!!! LOL

I was putting away some stuff and I also found some stuff I didn't know I had. I have a LOT of that kind of stuff here!!! It's SO sad!

Anyway, I thought I'd venture out of the Valentine mode and into March. Hubby has an aunt (his godmother) who has a birthday on St. Patrick's Day. So I thought this year I would make her a card that fit the day. I usually make her a "regular" birthday card. But since I had this paper and these buttons I thought I would use them!!

The stamp is a clear stamp by Inkadinkado. I don't use clear stamps very often. It's not that I don't like them, I just don't use them. I have a nice collection of them too!!! Though I do find it difficult to remove them from the plastic. I'm SO afraid I'm going to rip it. But so far I so good!!! I would get more use out of them if I were using them like they were designed. I mean using them to see where to place the image. I just stamped a single image on a piece of card stock. I didn't need to stamp something close to it. Now that is where clear comes in handy.

I just thought this little turtle was cute. I liked the wording and I knew I'd be coloring him in using greens and that is what the card needed!!! I'm sure she'll like the card!!!

Thanks SO much for visiting today,
Wanda
