..you have to kiss a lot of frogs....

Good morning....not a very pleasant one here at the moment....it's pouring down! At least the plants I put in at the weekend...in beautiful sunshine...will be benefitting!
The new challenge starting at Creative Moments today is sponsored by Bloobel Stamps and the team was given some fun and quirky  images to play with. I chose to use Frog Princess, this little lass is determined to find her prince...no matter how many frogs she has to kiss! The optional theme this week is 'black, white and one other colour', so I chose green as I didn't fancy a red frog! My card is fairly simple, image colored with copics matted onto green and black cardstock, a snippet of DP from my scraps drawer, a couple of die cut hearts and a ribbon attached with a brad.
Thanks for calling by and apologies for lack of comments this week. I'm staying at my Mum's while the rest of my family are on holiday...she needs 24/7 care as she is totally immobile...and there's just me, so unless she's asleep (like now!) I'm kept busy! It is lovely to spend some time with her though, she's still sharp as a knife and great company.
Have a lovely day
Chris

Great colour combo, Chris and I agree, I don' think I'd want to meet a red frog! I've seen Julia Altermann use these images and they look like a lot of fun to colour xx

Gosh she really must have kissed a lot as she is beginning to look like one, it 's the eye's.
Super fun image and love the choice of the green with the black and white.
This card really made me giggle.
