About the Design:
This "Turtle Moon" bookmark is inspired by the time I saw a leatherback sea turtle nesting on the cape lookout national seashore. I never did see her hatchlings emerge, but imagine it looked something like this. The inks used in this product are all made right here in North Carolina. It makes a great gift for a beach trip and some sea side reading.

About Block Printing:
Block prints often have slight textures and variations in the finished products. I think that's why I love them-- each one is special. Please be aware that, while I aim for consistency within each edition, there may be slight variations with each print and colors may differ from your computer screen.
Shipping and Production:
Please allow up to a week of time for your artwork to be printed and to dry thoroughly. If you need a faster turnaround time, message me and I'll do my best to accommodate you.
