Take It Slow with the Turtle-y Awesome Bundle

Sometimes, we all need a reminder to pause, breathe, and take things slow—and this sweet card delivers that message with the most adorable little turtle around! Created with the Turtle-y Awesome bundle from Stampin’ Up!, this soft, cheerful design is perfect for sending encouragement or a gentle pick-me-up.

Handmade card with a turtle lying on its back and the sentiment “It’s OK to take it slow” on a pink base with polka dot accents.

The card base is Pretty in Pink, setting the tone for a light and uplifting feel. I layered it with polka-dot patterned paper from the Turtle-y Cute DSP for a pop of color and fun. The turtle is stamped in Memento Black and colored in with Stampin’ Blends – Shy Shamrock, Lemon Lolly and Shaded Spruce bring this little friend to life!

I used the Textured Notes dies to cut the stitched rectangle behind the turtle and added a layered sentiment strip with a fun texture twist: a peek of Strawberry Slush ribbon beneath the stamped greeting. That sentiment – “It’s OK to take it slow” – couldn’t be more fitting for this lounging turtle!

The card is finished with a couple of coordinating pearls to tie it all together.

Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop up your sentiment strip – especially when layering over ribbon. This gives your card a balanced look and keeps the paper from buckling!
