Stamped Turtle

I love turtle-themed things. I love the multivalent symbolism of turtles: slow but steady/reliable like in the story of the tortoise and the hair; a hard outer shell, but soft inside; self-containment; etc.

Over the years I've accumalated LOTS of turtles--some I've chosen for myself, others given to me by friends, and ones that come to me by chance.

A baby shower invitation I recently received bears the latest turtle to come into my life. I'm pretty sure it's a stamped turtle.
