Just Hoppin' By

  Spring has sprung and my back yard and neighbourhood are brimming with rabbits. I am only seeing adults at this point but I know in a few weeks there will be rare sightings of the little ones. The adults are eating the new plant growth in my flower bed but they do it every year and every year I still have flowers and plants so I don't get too upset with them. 

It's spring and the rabbits that inspired my card this week. I challenged myself to use a stamp for a different theme then what it was made for. "Easter Gnome" is perfect for Easter cards but I think he is also perfect for a just because, checking in, thinking of you type card.

Happy Tuesday!

Just "hoppin" in to share my card today using the High Hopes stamp called "Handstand Frog". He sure is showing off his gymnastic skills LOL! This cutie is from the New Release "This & That" that started March 1st!

My card has a real simple design today with just 2 designer papers from the Polkadoodles "Splashing Around" 6x6 collection. I stamped the cute frog onto Copic friendly paper, coloured it with my Copic markers and then using a Zig Zag Oval die from MFT, cut it out. I aways like using foam tape to pop up my image as it adds dimension and interest to your card. The HH sentiment called "Just Hoppin" is perfect to use with "Handstand Frog"! A bit of twine with a bow, finish off my card.

Copics Used:

Frog: G29, G28, YG17, YG03, YG01

Lily Pad: YG61, YG63, YG67/ R81, R83
