Turtle Card and Bookmarks

For the very, FIRST time ever...one of my kids asked me to make something ;-)

This is for my DS girlfriend. She loves turtles!

There is a notecard, 4 mini bookmarks that are "magnetized" and 3 larger bookmarks with paperclips to hold your place.

Hope she likes them (and he gets a chance to give them to her before someone show her this site ;-))
