Happy Friday....you know what Friday means....Bloggers challenge. This weeks bloggers challenge was one of my favorite..Designer paper, and I love paper.
So, have you ever bought a stamp, which you thought was so cute, and then get it home and start to work with it and think "why did I buy this"? Well, that's what happened with this frog. I started to color it and decided that I didn't think it was as cute as I had originally thought.
Well, I bought it and decided I must use it (at least once). Then, I had to choose paper to match, and God knows I have paper. Problem....my desk was such a mess (see photos below) that I couldn't find anything, never mind paper that would pop out. So, I went with my left over scraps from the last card I made, and I think it worked. Hey, at least I can say I am using my stuff wisely (hehehehe). Save a tree right! I think I spent 2 hours making this card, and not because it was difficult, but because I spent most of my time trying to find stuff. At one point I had lost the frog that I cut out to pop dot. It took me 10 minutes to find it. Needless to say, my weekend mission is to clean my craft space.
Materials:
Stamps:Imaginscense
Paper: Basic Grey, coredinatiosn cardstock
ink: memento, copics
Misc:gems
I love that you are bold enough to post a picture of your space. You will NEVER see that on my blog...not at least until I need my new space created. HA!

ReplyDeleteI think the frog is so cute! This challenge was meant for you. HMMM..your space looks like mine right now. I guess my mission should also be to clean this weekend.
ReplyDeleteYour "Froggy" is delightful. The DP is wonderful but what I really loved was the fact that someone else besides me has a desk that looks like a Tornado went through the room! LOL
ReplyDeleteI think the frog is really cute!!!!
ReplyDeleteWith the snowstorm that is coming once again this weekend you will have lots of time to clean and stamp, don't you think? Awesome card once again Kristen!
Great card Kristen and let me just say your area is much cleaner than mine!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute Kristen! What a terrific froggie image! Love the designer paper too! :D
ReplyDeleteI spent last weekend cleaning up the messy stamping space. I love it now that it's cleaned and vow to keep it that way....yeah right!!
ReplyDeleteThe card is adorable!!!!
Oh my goodness! FOrget everything else, I love your frog! lol. I do love him, but your layout is wonderful! I love the matting on the DSP squares, really makes them pop! Great, great card (especially the frog, lol)
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny!!! I think the card is adorable and you did a great job on it.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving my copics so far, still need to perfect my coloring but am really liking them and have already added more to my "must have list"
This came out so cute! And, I can totally relate to the experience you shared about making this card . . .
ReplyDeleteThat little frog is so cute with the blocks of dsp! Great card!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute and adorable card!! You are right...I'm guessing that most of your readers can relate to falling in love with a stamp or paper in a store, only to bring it home and days (or weeks, or months) later, wonder why you ever thought it was great!! I know I have a lot of stamps like that!! Sad, but true!! Also got a chuckle over your stamp space! I just re-organized (it was a new year's resolution!!), but boy there were days that my space resembled yours!!
ReplyDeleteHope the clean up is going well. I try to keep my space organised but sometimes you can't help it.
ReplyDeleteGreat card. I love the way you coloured the frog.
Adorable card Kristen.Love the paper and the frog is the cutest!
ReplyDeleteFun card, nice colours.
ReplyDeleteHow is it that making a mess is compulsory for creating? The messier my desk the happier I am with whatever I'm creating!
This is just an adorable card. I love the colors and the way you did the dots on the scalloped edge.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your stamping space. Mine looks horrible (worse than yours) and I love seeing that other people work similar to me. I also spend too much time looking for a part of a card I just put together and it is amongst my pile of chaos. How can one little piece get lost so fast?
Thanks for sharing and I love your blog. I will be back and have signed up for email alerts.
I really love the popped up frog! He pops right off the DSP! Very cool!
