The background was cuttlebugged then I added glaze. Crackled paint (Tim Holtz) was used to color main panel for the effect of the water and sand. The cute gators are from Wild Birthday Wishes found here:http://handmstamps.com/! I stamped, colored, cut out and then glued gators! The cattails and the sand mounds are from Rubbernecker. All images were colored using copics!
This will be sent to my Uncle Robert who is a die-hard U of F Florida Gator fan! He will be celebrating his 86th birthday! TFL

What a perfect inspired birthday card for your uncle ... I love the crackle paint effect on your sand and water and your glazed background is very cool too.

Such a cute card -- and that's saying a lot from an FSU fan! But I won't hold it against an 86-year old for being a UofF fan. Lots of detail in your card. Good job on the challenge.
