Sea Turtle frame card

I am LOVING the papers in the Whale of a Time paper pack. There are so many things you can do with them. I fussy cut the turtles to add to the ocean floor paper.

Card Base: Cut Pretty Peacock 8 ½ X 11 paper in half widthwise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.

Card Mat: Cut Ocean floor paper 3 ½ X 4 3/4

Card Frame: Use the largest stitched rectangle die and the die 2 sizes smaller to cut front. You can cut both at once, I used post it notes to hold dies in place (see picture). If you want a different width frame, choose a different rectangle for the 2nd rectangle.

Attach ocean floor paper to center of front of your card base. Use wink of Stella to add glimmer to sea plants on paper.

Use dimensionals to attach frame over ocean print card mat. Attach Whale of Time sequins with on touch of multipurpose glue. Fussy cut (cut closely to shape) two sea turtles from paper. Attach sea turtles with dimensionals.

That’s it; you have finished your card front. For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Whisper White 4 X 5 ¼. Stamp a sentiment. I cut a strip ½ X 4 to put across the top of the stamped white card insert. Attach to inside of card.

I stamped the turtle on the envelope.
