So Hoppy for you…

Another challenge, another card…..  This time a Colour Challenge….

My first instinct was to go for “Inspired by Nature” Stamp Set & of course, seeing the frog there, I had to include that too, which is where “Hoppy for You” comes into it!  A great Stamp Set for kids!

I also included the Technique “Sponged Clouds”

My Card –
Supplies –
Stamp Set – Inspired by Nature, Hoppy for You
Inks – Not Quiet Navy, Baja Breeze, Bashful Blue, Kiwi Kiss
Cardstock – Whisper White, Kiwi Kiss, Pacific Point, Chocolate Chip

Until next time, Enjoy!

# 2…..

G’day Stampers,
 Well I have managed to return to post the card I finished to match the box posted earlier.

 This time I tempeted a “Hinged Card“.  I have never made one of these.  Seen heaps of them, so took it on board & did my version of it.  I do know there are instructions out there in Blog Land, but I wanted to show the edge around the top, so put my head down & went in blind.
Box & Card Set

Card – Closed
Card Open
Box Top
Side of Box – Close Up
Supplies –
Stamp Set – Wagon Full of Fun, Short & Sweet

I’ve just realised that the lid in the close up of the box is not sitting straight, so please excuse that!
