Froggie Flowers

Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! This cute little frog is so ready for spring! I think most of us are. Today is was a cold, windy, rainy 35 degrees. Being cold, WET and chilled to the bone by a raw wind...nothing around much worse than that. At least if it were snowing, you wouldn't get soaked. 

So my little froggie brought these lovely flowers to cheer us up. And all the green gives up hope that spring will be here soon. After stamping the frog, I colored him w/ Copics then used the splatter image and the lipstick ink underneath him. I also used a pink Copic to add more shading around him on the ground. The umbrella was stamped, colored and the handle part was done separately and added. I just thought it needed something and the umbrella fit the bill. The greeting was die cut as well as the flower & grass border. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used.


Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

Love how he's holding the umbrella and how you added the grassy flower border at the bottom. This is definitely Springy!
