Meet.....Speedy the Turtle!!! Don't you LOVE him??? Last month we debuted Sunny the Turtle and I think Speedy is his athletic cousin, what do you think? And he was a real hoot to colour!

The card base is a 6x6 square in chocolate chip and I used red to mat. The patterned papers are from one of the new My Mind's Eye 6x6 pads...which I LOVE! I used a green piece and cut out three layers using a grass border die and layered them over one another, tied some red twine and added a red button.
For colouring Speedy, I had fun because it's not a huge image but there is enough of each area to do some shading. I think his shell turned out well and his green skin was especially fun. I coloured and shaded it and then went back over and used the dotting technique to add some texture in the shaded areas. Lastly, I used one of Roxy's sentiments, because it is perfect for Speedy!

Now if you head over to the KKStamps Challenge Blog, there's a list of all the Krafty peeps who have peeks to share and be sure to leave comments at each one, because somebody is going to WIN the whole set of five new stamps from Emilie that are being shown today!!! It could be YOU!!
And come on back tomorrow because we've got new stamps from Cheryl Alger to show ya!!
