My goodness, Mondays roll around much too fast!! It's time for a new Repeat Impressions Stamp of the Week already! This week's stamp is 4103-K, Sea Turtle (lg) (scroll down just a bit.) Please visit the Repeat Impressions blog, The House That Stamps Built, to find out all the details on how to get this stamp for 50%, through next Sunday. Also, visit the other Design Team members' blogs to see their creations using this great stamp:
For my card, I paper pieced the turtle by stamping the image on two different patterned papers and cutting them out. (All my papers are from an older "The Slab" that I purchased from Michael's years ago.) Because the papers were thin, I also stamped it on a piece of cardstock and cut it out and used it to adhere the patterned pieces to. I mounted the turtle on Pop Dots. I embossed the strip across the center with a Cuttlebug folder. The sentiment is also from Repeat Impressions.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Very nice card, Lynette!
I really like how you added the embossing!
I like that! Your paper piecing is great and you had the perfect papers to use. Like the cuttlebugged addition - makes it look so sea worthy :)
Beautiful card Lynette. I love all the paper piecing.
What great texture! It goes perfectly with the turtle! GREAT job.
I love that paper you used that you embossed - it looks just like a sea turtle's shell - so perfectly done!
I would have had a really hard time coming up with a card for the Sea Turtle. Your card is really great. Love the paper piecing!
I just paper pieced for the first time on a tree because you inspired me to try. I really like how it looks and I had to mount mine on card stock as well. Thanks for the tips!
I especially like the cuttlebugged strip...it looks iridescent in the photo and gives great eye appeal!
I like this card Lynette. The embossed piece across the centre is a wonderful colour.

Wow! This is a great card Lynette. I love that you used the embossing folder that looks like the skin of a reptile. Your turtle is awesome.

Wonderful job with this image - I would have never thought to paper piece it! The embossed panel is the perfect complement! I'm REALLY behind on my blogging - I'll try not to flood your inbox ;-)
