WT524 - tell how long it took you to make the card. We will be just counting the time it took you to make the card.
This was a really simple card. I printed my image from one of my stash of images that I have started collecting. Colored with copics, mounted on the brown card stock and embossed the white in the bark EF. Mounted the bark paper, stamped the happy birthday on an already precut banner and mounted the banner on dimensionals. The flowers were also pulled from my stash of precut flowers and shaped and stickles added to the centers. I have tried to have a few images already preprinted or flowers and banners precut so I could save some time in my card making for when I really need a card quick.
Thanks for looking!

Sweet image, beautiful colouring and a lovely simple and clean design. Even with his load of cupcake I'm sure your tortoise (or turtle) is going to win his race.

Darling theme card for today's challenge. Great to have a stash of elements that you can draw from to create a quick card. (I may die cut, color, create bgs...but then rarely use them) Love your sweet turtle done in Mardi Gras colors.

This little turtle and his birthday cupcake is just the cutest. Brings to mind my grand daughter who has a pet tortoise and has a birthday in a few days : ) I may have to pull out one of my turtle images for today's challenge! Thanks for the inspiration.

Despite the fact that it didn't take much time, this is a beautiful card! I love the bg embossing, and the cute birthday turtle. A lovely clean and simple card!
