Measurements: with borders - cross panel 2 ½” rectangle panel – 1 ¾” x 3 3/8”, squares – 1 3/16”
-Prismacolor pencils, baby oil and paper stumps were used for the images. Use baby oil in place of Gamsol or mineral spirits.
-I used the Cuttlebug - Negative Effect on the squares to form the bubbles. I didn't want a high dry embossing so I ran them through the machine again with the tan mat for Nestibilites to flatten them out. I know, I do strange things, it had to do with mounting them to the image panel!
-Double line scoring with the Scor-Pal was done at top and bottom of the wide panel.
-Before I started coloring my images I did an internet search on sea turtle and plant photos for color ideas.
-All images including inside the card and envelope are from Cornish Heritage Farms.

Wow, Rox. I LOVE all the aqua and the bold pops of plant life. How perfect are those 'bubbles' in your dp. Glad you had got to relax and moose watch in Alaska. Must've been awesome. I almost made it there once!!!
