The Sea Turtle stamp set was still on my desk and I have used it to make a card featuring the 2 starfish images.
Colours used in this card are:
To recreate the starfish card, you will need:
Orchid Oasis card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Lemon Lime Twist card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White and Lost Lagoon card
The large starfish image was stamped in the upper left and lower right corners of the Orchid Oasis card front.

From scrap Basic White card, I punched a Hexagon using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch. I placed it onto the 5” by 3¼” panel of Basic White card and drew round it lightly with a pencil.

Using Lemon Lime Twist ink, I stamped the larger Starfish three times around the pencilled outline, making sure to overlap the drawn in line.

I added the smaller Starfish using Orchid Oasis ink then Lost lagoon ink and finally Fresh Freesia ink. The pencil lines were then erased and the decorated panel was adhered to the Lemon Lime Twist panel. The whole piece was then glued to the Orchid Oasis card front.

The sentiment, from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set, was stamped on the punched white hexagon in Orchid Oasis ink. A hexagon was punched from scrap Lost Lagoon card, cut across the middle from side to side and glued to the back of the sentiment label with a little of the Lost Lagoon showing at the top and bottom. The sentiment was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

A trio of Adhesive backed Discs decorated the bottom of the sentiment piece and a trio of the same sequins were scattered around the starfish.
