you hafta kiss a lotta toads before you meet your handsome prince!
And Happy St Paddy's day, friends! I'm late to the party today, but thanks Sabrina for your Think Three!!! ways to challenge. I managed 3 Toads, 3 coloring methods, and 3 ways to accent the eyes on said toads.
The All Night Media 'Bullfrog' fella was done in the TLC577 Smackin' Acetate style...I used 3 shades of TH distress markers to create his pattern. The Inkadinkadoo Amy Smyth made it 'lil' guy was colored with watercolor crayons, and that Stampendous 'Sir Toad' was created from a scrap of leftover Brushos. His umbrella is paper pieced.
That fab fence from Art Impressions was inked with TH distress pads and heat imposed with distress walnut stain ep. I then ran it through the big shot with a wooden embossing folder. It is stapled (cheaply the way many new fences are these days) to my card base.
Don't you just luv that kiss ticket (Inkadinkadoo). Inked with the 'Lilac Posies' and a 'Black Soot' distress marker. The top is finished off with Washi red violet tape and the sticker letters TOAD on top.
So if you've been following my ballerina froggie and that handsome dreamin' of luv frog, you'll welcome this trio of suitors. 'Cause you can't just kiss one, right???
Thanks so much for stopping by today...I finally kissed my way through to my prince charming over 30 years ago...and he approved this card, smile!!!

You must be having SO much fun since your cards have been phenomenal in design and execution! The brusho frog is amazing since you managed to get the color exactly where you wanted it. Love that fence, so expertly done. What a terrific card and a fun one too!

Your card croaked me up. I love frogs. I wonder which one is the prince? I think it's the one with the umbrella. He toadlly has it going on with that pieced umbrella. Up Town Bull Frog there.

You are "toad"-ally on a roll with these cute toad cards!!!
Love them - they are so playful and refreshing! Oops, just seeing that the comment before me made the same play with words! Oh, well, and I thought I was being clever!
