Friendship “catch of the day”

Published by cwilliams at 8:00 am under Rubbernecker, cards

Frog-1Hi everyone, here is a card that a client asked me to make for her. She wanted something with a frog on it……..she said do you have anything like that……he he……if she only knew “HOW” many stamps I have with frogs or just how many stamps I have, not just frogs!! The guy friend she is sending this to is very sick and not expected to be here to much longer…so very sad, she knows he will be in good hands with God and not in so much pain any more. She wanted bright happy colors, his favorite color is orange. I love the way this turned out and I love bright colors. I sure hope this brightens his day!!

The frog is stamped with Adirondack pitch black on PTI white cs, colored with my Copic markers, the background is airbrushed with SU re-inkers after making a mask for the frog image. I added glossy accents to the frog eyes and water. I used a silver metallic pen for parts of the fishing pole. The ribbon is from SU Ribbon Originals. The main image is matted to SU brilliant blue, the DP is also SU Jersey Shore.

    It’s a very sad reason for the card but I like the idea of sending something so bright and cheerful. I’m sure it’s exactly what he needs right now. You know, I have quite a few frog stamps, too! I haven’t used one in ages. If only I had more time… Your card is absolutely adorable and I LOVE it!
