I'm still focusing on using scraps, I will not let myself cut into any new, untouched DPs just yet, I want to see the pile of scraps being reduced a bit more. I had already colored up my image with Promarkers and started my hunt in one of three large boxes of scraps to find papers in green and brown shades, I found several. So I chose a few in different patterns that were the right size to cover an A2 panel. I die cut a tag for the sentiment ("Today is your day") and attached it with string to the frog's wrist. Three wooden stars were added. Zigzag stitching.

This fun frog with the sentiment written on the tag makes me smile, he remember me the kiss of a princess :D
ReplyDeleteIn these days I tought the some thing of you: my leftovers must be reduced...! And your card is a wonderful exemple of reusing scraps!! So pretty!! The zigzag stitching looks very well with the "mosaic" of DPs (and the papers are so beautiful!)
Have a lovely weekend!
Your little frog is so cute and I love the patterned papers you chose. You are a very disciplined crafter. I have a big box of scraps too and need to do what you are doing. You have inspired me. Thanks for playing along with us at Seize the Birthday!
ReplyDeleteYou've made great use of your scrap box Pia the papers make a lovely background for your fun frog
ReplyDeleteGreat job with the colour scheme - this is really fun. Did you glossy the eyes? Love the tag placement.

There's something abou this card that makes me think of Kermit dressed as Huckleberry Finn looking for a princess to kiss. Weird! But a card that takes my imagination on a wild journey is a winner in my book. You sure nailed this one, Pia.

Cute little guy! Great layout. I really like the bright green guy over the more-subdued scraps. (Isn't it so satisfying reducing your scrap bin???)
