You can't get more green than the adorable Turtle Tots Teddy Bear. I stamped it in Memento Tuxedo black ink and coloured it with copics, adding some extra shading with pencil crayons and gamsol.
The pattern paper is Echo Park Springtime Seasonal Stripe - perfect as it sure felt like spring this past week! I kept the layout pretty simple with just a bit of grosgrain ribbon and a couple of prima flowers. I wanted to try my hand at the pretty shading around the images and the grass that so many of the Bellababes have perfected. Paula-bella has a great tutorial on grass here and shading around the image here. I think I need a bit more practice and probably should have used the pencil crayons for the grass, not copics! Oh well, I will persevere. Have a great weekend!

I love this card. Sweet and simple. I love the colours and the shading on the grass gives it that special touch.
Why the heck didn't I think to color one of the Turtle Tots...brilliant girl! I love them and they are perfect for this challenge. We're loving the spring weather in our neck of the woods too. 70's in March...this is unheard of. The grass is even turning green like yours is here. Great card!
So busy looking at your beautiful cards that I"m not exactly sure when you changed your profile pic but I love it!
