Happy Birthday XXX frog in waistcoat 7x5in white card Hi Craft addicts! I had so much fun making this frog themed Birthday card which can be used for young and old alike! How I made this card:- I first of all stamped the froggy background and the frog itself out on to some white stamping card using Gina K Black Amalgam ink. I then used one of Tattered Lace's Antique Lace Essential Circle dies to cut the background out and used two of their Pin Dot Circles to cut the green and white circles using Hunkydory's For The Love of Stamps paper pad. I hand painted the frogs in the background and the main frog stamp using Dreamees Dinkie Inkies inks - green, red and blue. I then cut out the frog leaving a narrow white border all around it. I used the Happy Birthday stamp sentiment (from Bert & Gert's Ball Games set 2) and stamped it again onto some white stamping card and cut it out with one of the smaller Antique Lace dies. I stuck the three main background cir...

Smile... Frog with Christmas hat and ball square card -  Day 333 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Today's latest handmade card for day 333 of my challenge is a fun Frog themed winter card which could be for Christmas or a Winter Birthday! How I made this card:- I then used the frog with a ball stamp from Personal Impressions' Christmas Frog Smiles set and stamped it on to a prepared circle of white stamping card (Hunkydory) using Tuxedo Black Memento ink. I then coloured it in using red, pink and blue alcohol markers for the hat and ball, along with a light green for the frog itself! Once I was happy with the effect, I stamped the SMILE sentiment underneath the frog using Toffee Versafine ink. I then used a couple of snowflakes from Dawn Bibby's Magical Christmas Scene stamp set, and stamped them all over the card using Rare Earth's ink pads (red and blue and a darker blue).  Once that was done, I then cut out a larger circle in the silver ho...

Happy Birthday Zendoodle Frog 7" x 5" card -  Day 248 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! I coloured in this Zendoodle frog a couple of weeks ago but hadn't done anything with it - but here is a card that I used it for.. How I made this card:- I first of all stamped the Zendoodle Frog out on to some white stamping card using Versafine Onyx Black ink and then added some clear embossing powder and heat set it. I then Zentangled the whole image creating my own design which is great fun and mirrored one design on the opposite side. I then coloured it in using Zig Clean Color pens trying to keep the same colours on either side of the frog. Once I was happy with it (well as happy as I would be), I cut it out trying to make sure that no white was showing. Before adding it to the card, I mat and layered 3 pieces of card - one red as that was one of the main colours in the frog, then black and finally a smaller panel of Silver Mirri card. I then ...

Cute frogs hand coloured and stamped 6in card -  Day 364 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Today's card has been made using a cute "frog" stamp from Heartfelt Creations , the matching die on a 6in card. How I made this card :- I first of all stamped the "Flirting Frogs" stamp from the Winking Frogs collection by Heartfelt Creations onto some white stamping card and coloured the lily pad in using some pink shades of alcohol markers.  I then used green shades of alcohol markers to colour in the two frogs and allowed it to dry. Using the co-ordinating die from the same collection, I cut it out. I then went into CANVAS (the Brother ScanNCut web app) and selected two styles of border strips and cut them out in a darker and lighter pink cardstock. i attached them to the centre of a 6" white card using a tape pen. I also stuck the "Frog" topper to the middle of them both again using a tape pen. For the sentiment I used the...
