I fell in love with the Hero Arts frog, and I had to make him mine! So as soon as I saw he was part of a set, I emailed Angela and asked her to please set one of these aside for me, and she obliged. She has never talked me out of a thing! :-) I picked him up on my last field trip over the river (the trip when I met up with June), and he's stayed quietly in his bag until last night, when I retrieved him and his friends because I had an idea.
I had seen this sketch, and thought the Hero Art stamp set critters would work well. I decided to grab a pack of Basic Grey Figgy Pudding paper from last year (I have three packs of the 6x6...) and maybe use some of it. This is what came out:
It's a little busy for me, but I still kinda like it. I'll say I used the sketch as inspiration, because I think my circles are a bit too large (I had to pop up two of them so they overlapped and fit on the card!), plus my patterned papers were so busy I needed to stamp the sentiment in between the strips. But hey - I used both my new stamp set and some of last year's papers. Yay, me!
That's it for tonight...I'm making up for that tome I posted last night! Methinks I'll hit the hay early. Thanks for stopping by!
Adorable!
