This was done for Robin's hope you can cling to challenge seen here: I did use this tutorial from Beate for this found here. The turtle is an older one from SU and I no longer remember it's set name. I did use a paper towel to buff the ink off the top of the goosebumps image after sponging/colordusting the ink on. tfl

What a beautiful image! There is something about turtles that seems so strong and steady. I love the way you coloured her. The mulberry paper peeking out reminds me of the kelp these guys love.

Awesome colors and textures on this, Stacy! The main image looks a little bit tie-dyed to me the way the colors blended and I love the dark paper for paper for contrast.

Stacy, your turtle panel is wonderful!...thanks for including the link to Beate's tutorial. Your colors are the colors of the sea and I like the "fuzzy" fibers peeking out from behind that main panel...give an interesting accent.
