Have a Hoppy Birthday and Guest Designer Spot!

Happy Tuesday, everyone! I hope you are having a great day! I have a card to enter into a few challenges today :)
The pink and green background paper is from The Sasha Collection by Prima Marketing. I cut the flower from the paper and adhered it behind the froggy. The green paper is Core Couture and I used a MS punch. I cut the frog from Once Upon A Princes and attached him with a homemade wobble. I used "have a" and "birthday" from K Andrew's Coffee & Tea For You & Me set. Did you know Kristal has three new sets coming out soon? They are so awesome - must-haves! Click HERE for more info or to purchase your own set!

Recipe
  • K Andrew Coffee & Tea For You & Me Stamp Set - "have a" and "birthday"
  • Prima Marketing Sasha Paper Pack - pink and green background paper
  • Core'dinations Core Couture - green paper
  • DCWV - shimmery paper for the frog
  • Once Upon a Princess - frog at 2 1/2"
  • Base Camp - "hoppy" at 1/2"
  • Tim Holtz Walnut Distress Ink - edges of frog
  • Colorbok Pink Chalk - edge of die
  • Spellbinders Nestability Die
  • Martha Stewart Punch
  • Handmade Wobble - 12 gauge wire
  • Hobby Lobby Ribbon
  • Recollections Pink Gems
  • iRock - crystal gems
I am entering the card in the following challenges
I am so excited to have been asked by Rhonda and Amy to be a guest designer again for Decorate to Celebrate! tomorrow! This such a fun challenge blog...it truly pushes me out of my comfort zone of making cards, the occasional scrapbook layout or wall hanging. Every two weeks they post a new challenge where you come up with decorations for a theme. It's so much fun and I hope you will drop by tomorrow and join in!

Thanks so much for stopping by today :)

    This frog must be a prince... he's to cute to be just an ordinary frog! Love your paper choice and the MS punch you used (really like the looks of your border... I must find one of those).
    Congratulations on your Guest Design spot... make us something pretty!!!

    Frogs aren't supposed to be cute but this one is. I saw earlier today that you had won on someone's blog (can't remember which one) but congratulations anyway.
