I have been wanting to use this cute image for a while, and I think it worked well to paper piece the cactus and also the lazy turtle. (I think he is trying to keep cool in our 110+ temps in AZ!) This Relaxin Turtle is by QKR, and the sentiment is Eureka. I used the same pattern paper for the Spellbinder border style die cuts, and backed it with black. The sun is from a Cuttlebug Die. I used scraps for all the paper piecing and the strips. The image is new to me; all the papers are old, including the blue sky.
