Today’s project was inspired by the tree frogs in the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper, along with our frogs in the So Hoppy Together stamp set.

Tree Frog

It was also inspired by this week’s CAS(E) this sketch. 

Have you seen a tree frog? Well, you have now! I stamped the frog in Memento Black ink on a piece of dotted, In Color 6X6″ DSP, and used a Hop Around die for cutting. Unfortunately, the dies have sold out, so, you’ll have to return to fussy cutting.

TIP: Order without hesitation when you see something you love.

The small tree frogs in the circle were cut from Animal Expedition DSP with a Stitched Shapes die. They were sitting on a nice branch, and I needed to find a large branch for my large frog. There it was in the Seasonal Layers die set, and I used a piece of Wood Textures DSP for cutting.

I added a leaf  from Garden Green cardstock, using the Leaf Punch.

TIP: The circle, leaf, branch, and frog were all layered for thickness.

The Woodland embossing folder made an appropriate background for my tree frogs, which I embossed on Whisper White cardstock, and layered on a Thick Whisper White card base. 

The last detail was adding the sentiment, which was a bit scary. I stamped “Hey…”, from the So Hoppy Together stamp set, directly on the card front. It stamped nicely in Garden Green ink, so, thankfully I didn’t have to cover an inky mistake.

Thank you for hopping by today. I hope you enjoyed seeing some happy tree frogs! Everything in my Product List is available for ordering, except the Hop Around dies.
