This week the Squigglefly blog challenge is to make a birthday card. http://squigglefly.blogspot.com/
Just what is stopping you from going to Squigglefly and getting a free image if you donÂ’t have one and then entering for a prize???? If you do, put SFC0512 in the keywords and link your card on the site!
This cute frog and sentiment are from Squigglefly, by Chesney Young.
I was trying to case Shirley aka WannaBcre8tive as she was featured stamper FS260; this is her card: Dragon Ornament, saq by wannabcre8tive at Splitcoaststampers . I kept the dots, the green and the horizontal ribbon. I also was working on the IC322 Forums at Splitcoaststampers using the frogs as inspiration.
Well, letÂ’s just say, lots of tossed attempts lead me to this card. I just could not get what I wanted to do out of me! The papers I had on hand were just not what I had in my head. Well, at least I had an image I could make any size I want. If not for that, I would have lost my marbles!

I absolutely LOVE how you colored some of the embossed circles! The little dragonfly brads are darling Terri, and I love the rick rack! I just now saw that you were Queen on Friday! So sorry I missed that!

Terri,
This little guy is so cute - just hanging out at the pond with his party hat on - waiting to - party! You've colored him perfectly and your BG is awesome - especially the colors added.

This is so adorable as is the themed sentiment Brat. I'm so happy you are zee queen; but, honestly, there are some treasures I left hoping you would one day enter the palace so I could share them with you. What is this? Are those camoflauged gold dragonflies? Oh, you are so clever and wise. Who would have thought to do this except, of course, our QUEEN!

Your card is just adorable, Brat. I love those dots and how you used the chalks on them. I love the image and the bright colors you chose. What Marbles? LOL Thanks, so much for playing and making my week even more special.

Adorable! Even if you forgot a birthday, they couldn't be angry at you, after seeing this card! I love the focus on green in this card. Love the large polka dot embossing and how you colored the lower part. Love that image too and the darling dragonfly brads.
