Hello everyone! This is Amanda from Twiddler’s Nook. I can’t even begin to explain how excited I am to share today’s card. Do you ever create something that you’re just so perfectly happy with that you’re beaming and love looking at it over and over again? That’s seriously how I am with this card today. I don’t know what it is exactly but I love it so much and I really hope you do too!
I started this card by stamping a few images from the May Stamp of the Month – Ribbit, and colored them with my copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and they sat on my desk for a few days because I just couldn’t decide what I wanted to do. Then one night, it all just came together!
My background panel is embossed with the Wide Stripes embossing folder and adhered to a white card base. Then I cut a couple of frames using the A2 Layering Rectangles dies and the Hooray paper pad. Those are adhered with EZ Squeeze liquid glue. Finally I cut the largest Double Stitched Dome from another piece of Hooray paper and popped it up with foam squares. I arranged my images around the dome and popped them up as well.
Totally flying by the seat of my pants, I placed the whole thing in my MISTI and stamped the RIBBIT! sentiment in the center of the dome between that adorable from and the log at the bottom. I seriously love it!
Finally, for finishing touches I added a massive scattering of Silver Glossy Dots around the whole design and glossy accents on things like the cattails and frog’s tongue. I also added unicorn Stickles to the dragonfly wings for extra sparkle.
Isn’t this card so cool!?! I just love it so much and can’t wait to share it with someone soon!
