2RB Sneak Peek - Mr. Frog Grad


For 2RedBananas' Sneak Peek today I used a cute stamp set by Abbey Westemeyer called Mr. Frog Grad. We all know that graduation is right around the corner, so now I'm all set for at least one grad. Be sure to go to 2RB's blog to see more peeks by the DT.

The card base is green CS with a ric-rac edged piece of white CS on top and a block of black CS on top of that. I used Tsukineko's Brilliance Moonlight White ink to stamp the "Yipee" sentiment repeatedly on the black CS.

The frog is stamped on watercolor paper and colored with watercolor pencils and Sakura Stardust pens. I added a little tassel made of black thread to the mortarboard and a little "diploma" made from a tiny piece of rolled paper and some red thread to the frog's hand.

This was a fun set to use, and there are even more fun sets that will be available on 2RedBananas.com this coming Monday. Don't miss it.
