Ever since I mounted my Snow Day stamp set from the Holiday Catalog I've been thinking about how much the little face stamp looked like a froggie's face. I came home from Dawn's workshop tonight, sat down and made one! Lookie:
Isn't he just the cutest little guy?
Here's the flip side of the card, then I will show you how I made his little froggy face!
Up close:
His face and body are the Small Oval Punch. His legs are the Small Heart Punch, and his feet are from the Owl Builder Punch!
To make his little froggy face, first I stamped this face image from Snow Day on a scrap of Pistachio Pudding cardstock with Jet Black StazOn ink. Then I centered the eyes in two of the scallops of the 2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch like this before I punched it out:
Next, I put the stamped-and-scalloped part in the Small Oval Punch and punched again:
After punching this time I had to do a little bit of trimming around the edges of his cheeks with my Paper Snips, but that's all!
