a special Bee day

i am very excited! i just finished my nephew's birthday gift! he is turning one this coming week and although i have never met him, i know he is the sweetest little guy and wanted to get him something special. since this crafty gal is short on clams ($) these days i consulted some craft books and found a sweet turtle pattern in Amy Karol's 'bend the rules sewing'. Since his dad loves turtles (who doesn't?) i though it would be perfect....
so here he is...(i named him mortimer...)

here is the very special bee-day card i made to go with it:



oh happy day!

    that bee looks tired phew!

    and at first glance I thought the front side of the turtle was a mushroom with polka dots 8)
