Hoppy Birthday

All credit to Monica Gale who had a fantastic youtube video tutorial showing how to make this card. Here is my version for my father-in-law!

The cool thing is that the little frog spins around when you tip the card from side to side. I love that little frog character!! How does the mechanism work? Well I'll give you a clue... it uses two 1p coins!

New stamps, New cards

These are the cards I made with my lovely new stamp sets: Big Bold Birthday (light blue & orange) and, from the retired section, Unfrogettable. I just love the cute froggies!!

The blue card also shows my big block stamp that creates dots all over the card. It's a really clever and subtle effect when done in the coordinating ink.

The orange card had some free-style doodling to add to it's 'wonky' feel.
