Princess seeks frog..


I just received this oh so cute frog and quote from Scrolls Work Stamps and couldn't wait to play with them, so I made this card using Emma and a crown stamp which are also both from Scrolls Work.
The background is inspired (again) by Jo's fantastic article in the 10th birthday issue of Craft Stamper Magazine. I used a white crayon to scribble over white card and then coloured the card with Worn lipstick distress ink using cut'n'dry foam. I started inking from the inside to the edge to give a faded out effect. I am entering this for Rainbow Lady's make your own background challenge.
