I Froggot!

This cute little card is 4 1/4"x5 1/2." I used a pre-made card by DCWV for the card base. I then cut a piece of Core'dinations cardstock 1/4" smaller. I embossed it with the Happy Birthday embossing folder. I then used some sandpaper to expose the green core. I cut two strips of white cardstock, one at 1"x4" and one at 3/4"x3 3/4." I stamped my sentiments on them and adhered them to the card base. I then cut a strip of patterned paper at 5 1/2"x1" and adhered it to the card. I then added some faux stitching around the edges of the white strips. My frog is cut from Paper Doll Dress Up, cut at 3" (using real dial size). I used pop-dots to adhere it to the card and gave it some google eyes.

I made this card for the following challenges:
