Myth & Magic - The Frog Prince

Hope you are all having a lovely week-end, it's time for another fab challenge over at Here Come the Boys Challenge Blog. The theme this week is Myth and Magic, not an easy one for me, but I love my little punch art frog. My moto is you need to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince! This would make a fun anniversary card for the man in your life IMHO.

Do pop over and check out the other lovely cards on the blog

Springtime Quilt

Another new favourite from the mini catalogue are these gorgeous papers Springtime Vintage. I used the Top Note die with the Bigshot to cut the shape after I stuck the squares of paper down, et voila a lovely quilt!

The paper rose is made from the 1 3/4 inch circle punch cut round in a spiral and the leaves are cut from the 5 petal flower punch. I added a little detail to them by scoring the veins of the leaf with an embossing tool.

Hope you like it and thanks for stopping by.
