Turtle Shaped Birthday Card

Created this Turtle Shaped Birthday Card
using Animal Kingdom Cricut cartridge.

First time for me making a Turtle shaped card.

Decided to make the turtle using 2 different
shades of green cardstock. Embossed the shell
image and liked the reverse embossing side.

Stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment before
attaching the shell. Used foam for attaching shell
for a 3D look.

Used chalk mixed with glue for a natural rustic
look on the shell. Used Distress Ink on the edges.
