Meet Shelldon the Turtle

Did you get your fill of Easter candy yesterday?

It was a hectic day for us making the rounds to each family, but we had a great time visiting everyone. I'm glad we got back home early enough to do a few things around the house & I even found a little time in my Studio to play with some images that we're just beggin' to get put to use!

How cute is this little guy? From all the latest releases from DRS Designs, I can't believe it has taken me this long to figure out what to do with him! He's been on my desk for 3 weeks now, all colored and ready to go! Guess I just need the push from last week's Splitcoast Sketch challenge to create with him!

I colored him with Prismacolor Pencils and blended the colors with Gamsol. I stamped the sentiment in green ink and then assembled the image and sentiment according to the sketch. I created the vertical panel using the easy Dot background stamp with green and pink ink and them matting it with pink cardstock that was decorated using the Treading Water border Punch. I added ribbon to dress it up a little as well.
