This is Herbert the Turtle, and I used him to celebrate Freddie's 1st Birthday. The sketch is a combination of this week's SCS sketch and ODBDSLC18 F.L.O.W.E.R sketch. You can see this challenge here:
To satisfy the ODBD sketch, Herbert is watercolored. I embossed the background with a CB embossing folder. I hoped it would look similar to bubbles to help celebrate. I also used ribbon to finish up the ODBD challenge. I decided since it was Freddie's 1st birthday, I would draw in confetti.
Freddie isn't going to notice his card, but sure hope it puts a smile on his Mommy's face. TFL
