Inspirational Card Sketch #51

Please scroll down for my day two TGF relay card and if you haven't done so already sign up for my The Greeting Farm blog candy located in my right sidebar.

Whooo...my second post for today. Dawn at Inspirational Card Sketches has given us another fabulous sketch to work with this week and I do hope you get a chance to play along. The week my friend and super talented Heather from Fresh Brewed Designs is our sponsor. She is also and ICS DT member. She has some uber cute images and this is one of them from her Fresh Brewed Shop.

This image is super cute but did give me a bit of a challenge when coloring the shell. I normally look for sections to color in that aren't too big for optimal blending but in the end I think it turned out pretty darn cute. I think I will be giving this to my 3 yo daughter for Valentine's. I know she will love that headband on the turtle. I turned to my scraps for the paper and PTI for the red cardstock.

Thank you for stopping by today and for more inpiraiton using today's sketch please visit the DT located in my left side bar. Have a wonderful day!
