Hi Lovelies!
Today is Challenge 11 at Arty Divas. This is a FORTNIGHTLY "anything goes" (any type of project and any theme) challenge with a design team who makes projects showcasing the sponsor who often offers PRIZES!
This week's sponsor is KLM Digital Designs (Katy's Card Emporium)
Prize:
About KLM:
"I started stamping in 2005 thanks to the help of my mother who at the time was a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator. Over the years my mother and I have designed and manufactured our own line of digital stamps, I have also been published in stamping magazines and have been a team member for many design teams.
I am a full time police officer as well as a single parent. I love crafts and use it as an escape from every day life. My kids love crafting as well and probably have accumulated just as much supplies as I have! (Lol)"
For this challenge I had an idea for a card as soon as I saw the image of the turtle stuck on his back. With a custom sentiment (once again thanks to my pink vintage Olivetti typewriter) it makes a rather cheerful get well card!
Mr Turtle was coloured with Copics. My laser printer and I are having a bit of a stand off when it comes to printing on correct paper for pencils 😡
After fussy cutting and mounting him on equally adorable swan paper (by Pebbles from their "Tealightful" collection circa 2016) since I was determined to place him in his natural habitat, Even if his swan friends are wearing crowns rather like the AD logo 😉
I pulled the words for the sentiment off and on several times which has given them a bit of dimension. I just love the perfectly imperfect quirks of an old typewriter! Just be sure to use the correct version of You're/You. (yes. this Pink Mama is also a grammarphile!)
To finish I pulled some sequins from the "Motley" mix by Spiegelmom Scraps and adhered with my trusty Micro Glue Dots. I thought they looked somewhat like bubbles, but the sheen made them so much more whimsical!
LURVE this smiley turtle, a happy card to get anyone on their feet.
