Nearly Frogot!


 Good morning, I was delighted to be invited to Guest Design for this month's Challenge
 made my card, forwarded it to Becca- then nearly frogot the Challenge starts today! My excuse is the heat has fried my brain and what's left of it is absorbed with our up-coming holiday!  Luckily I remembered in time, so here it is!

The froggy, background paper and sentiment are Mo Manning digis, frog printed separately, coloured with markers and fussy cut, he's popped up on foam as I wanted his fingers to hang over the banner with the sentiment. 
I used a sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday
I rotated the sketch, and you have to look closely to see the dots in the corners...but they are there!

I'd like to thank the lovely ladies at Critter Crazy for inviting me to design with them this month. Don't forget to check out the lovely inspiration on offer there.

Thanks for visiting,
have a good week.

This froggy card is such a delight, from the bright colors to the fun expression, and the way you popped him up so his fingers hang over the banner adds great personality; the background paper and rotated sketch work beautifully together, making the whole layout feel lively and full of movement.

Great fun froggy card. Sorry I’m so late commenting … blogger issues are definitely happening as I never saw any of your most recent cards in my reading list! Xx

This is sooooo fun!! The look on the frog's face goes perfectly with that sentiment! I love your take on the sketch; it's perfect!
