Happy 1st Birthday Turtle Card

I made this card yesterday for my Mum to give my youngest nephew for his 1st Birthday. Hope you all like it :D

Happy 1st Birthday Turtle Card



I used white card for my base card which I covered with a pastel blue and white stripe paper.




The turtle image was another of my sketches which I coloured in using coloured pencils (am hoping to upload it as a Digi for you all soon). However I did not colour in his shell or hat, as I paper pieced these with pastel patterned papers. I then cut a "1" out of orange paper, outlined it with a black marker and glued it to the center of his shell. I then glued him onto the card. I also cut the "Happy Birthday" sentiment out of orange paper, outlined it with a black marker and glued it to the card.



For the inside of my card I cut a strip of pastel blue striped paper and glued it down the middle. Lastly I sketched out my sentiment "1 Today" which I coloured in with an orange pencil, cut out and glued to the inside of the card.
