One of my favorite stamp sets is Unfrogettable. So I thought I would use it for one of my Club projects this month. I had to share it cause I love how it turned out! This was actually my second card. I was all done with the first card and then my daughter woke up, I went in to get her up and when we snuggled she fell back to sleep, then this card came to me.Luckly, she stayed asleep and I got to make it before I "FROGGOT" IT!
I also wanted to use my current In Colors, they are great, so I used Wild Wasabi, Groovy Guava and Purely Pomegranate. The water is soft sky and blue bayou and dragonfly's wings are soft sky as well. And as I always say, love is in the details, so I added crystal effects for the snail trail and white gel pen to accent the flowers. I can not resist using the crystal effects with the snail almost every time I stamp him, how cute! This is a Z-fold card. See the side view:
I use the saying " Have I toad you lately that I love you" on the inside of the card, and I punched it out with the Scallop circle punch. The frog got some love too, wiggly eyes, which work perfect with this set! The paper on the inside of the card is Groovy Guava Prints DSP.
So as I am typing this I am thinking you probably want to see the card I did not go with, okay, here it is:
Not a bad card. I like it, but I LOVE the second one! This one is also a Z-fold, just turned a different direction.
All the images in this post were colored with my In Color Markers, Blender pens inked with the In Color re-inkers. I love them, it gives me so many more options with my In Colors.
If you do not have this Unfrogettable set, and the two matching wheels (view them here) you must get it before it retires August 10th! Email me at [email protected] if you would like to purchase it before it is gone forever!
Happy Stampin'
I love both cards! I don't have this set although it is on my wish list-I don't usually purchase retiring sets but after seeing your adorable cards I may have to change my mind. The "snail trail" is pure genius-I may have to CASE!
