Story book...an other story...

 Hello everyone !¸

Following the first of this series, here's my frog card!

A simple tutorial for you !




Here is the tutorial:

Step 1: Card base

  • Step 1: The card base

  • Cut a 10 (fold at 5) X 6 1/4 inches card base out of White Soft finish Cardstock. Cut a light blue 4 3/4 X 6 inches rectangle. Adhere the light blue rectangle to the white card base with some Double Sided Adhesive Tape.
  • Cut a 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 inches rectangle out of dark blue cardstock. Adhere to the light blue cardstock.
  • Cut 2  4 X 5 1/4 inches rectangle out of White Soft finish Cardstock.
  • Line the back of one of the  4 X 5 1/4 inches White Soft finish Cardstock  rectangle with some Double Sided Adhesive Tape. Using a finger dubber, ink up the white cardstock with some blue and green shades of Oxide Inks. Spritz some drops of water and let air dry.
  • Die cut the inked rectangle with Elizabeth Craft Designs "Leaf Pattern Background" #1800 dies set. Remove the die cut background gently with the help of  tweezers, leaving the negative parts on the adhesive sheet for ulterior uses. Adhere the background to the remaining white rectangle. Adhere it to the dark blue rectangle.

Step 2: 
The Frog

  • Using Elizabeth Craft Designs dies set "Frog" # 1789, die cut all the parts of the frog and the lily pad using some colored cardstock lined with some Double Sided Adhesive Tape.
  • Adhere the different parts of the frog on the lily pad and on the card base. Glue some googling eyes with some Kids Choice Glue.





Step 3: The Cattails

  • Using the cattail in the Elizabeth Craft Designs dies set "Once Upon A Time Accessories #1795", die cut the part twice in some colored cardstock lined with some Double Sided Adhesive Tape.
  • Adhere the parts of the cattails and adhere on to the card.
