A special little guy turns one years old today and to celebrate, I made up this cute little card featuring a frog recently released over at Unity Stamp Co.

I decided this image called for a mini slimline card. I first coloured him up using small blending brushes with some distress inks. Next, I created a hill for the frog to be standing on using some distress watercolour pencils and a wet paintbrush. 

I added in some colour to the grass and flower details with the distress watercolour pencils, too. I die cut a number '1' from some glitter cardstock and shaded it green using distress ink before adhering it to the balloon. Happy Birthday, Theo!
