I have used Basic Grey papers from a 'grab bag' over at Sarah's Cards, good value as all the papers are very usable, but are from older ranges! Also some Doodlebug paper frills(i have loads of these, so need to use them a bit more often!!) My lovely frog is stamped with Adirondack 'Espresso' and then watercoloured with Lyra's and a water brush. The greeting is an acrylic from HOTP and i also chose to add a MM chipboard button to finish. I think this frog stamp would be good for a male Birthday as well, what do you think?

Penny Black cuties here called 'You're A Treasure' from the Margaret Sherry collection, so adorable!
Image stamped using the same inks and watercoloured as described in froggy card, Basic Grey papers, but these are from 'Stella Ruby' 6 x6 pad. Gingham ribbon from Ribbonbox, sentiment is Hero Arts and brads from Dovecraft. Thanks for popping in today, and i hope you all keep well!!
They are both GORGEOUS Carol!!

ReplyDeleteWhat lovely cards, Carol! You know, when I saw the froggy one I thought 'Hey - great male card!' so yes, I agree it would be a good one for a man's birthday. And if I saw the little hedgehogs' stamp in a Bargain Basement store it wouldn't stay there long! Lol!
