I needed a birthday card for my friend Becky who's crazy for frogs and knew I couldn't go wrong with a Dustin Pike image. I used my Copics to color this sweet little guy (don't you just love that face!) and added the sentiment using a stamp from Papertrey Ink. I finished the edge of the designer papers with a Martha Stewart punch, added a chocolate gingham ribbon and topped it all off with a little butterfly button. I had no idea where I was headed with this when I started, but I really like how it turned out ... simple, but cute ... I think Becky will like it too!!
I love this card, so simple but so cute, class! All your cards are gorgeous!! Thanks for visiting my blog and your very kind words. Have a nice day! Hugs, Lily
This is just so adorable! I love your punched edges--can't go wrong with a punched edge! And that ribbon with the butterfly is totally the finishing touch. Really nice job and I bet she LOVED it!
I live in a small town in central Missouri with my husband and two dogs. I recently retired, so I can usually be found in my craft room working on a current project or in front of my computer looking for ideas for my next project. While I've been crafting for years, I didn't start making cards until after I received my Cricut Expression as a Christmas gift in 2008. Since then, cardmaking has become my passion (some would say obsession)! Anyway you look at it, it's been wonderful. Thanks for stopping by and please leave a comment ... I'd love to hear from you.
