Freddie the Frog with a Bad Memory

Hello! I hope you are well today!  I have a fun card to share that is actually a mix of a digi image and a rubber stamp. I have a certain friend in mind for this card, I will use it for his birthday.


I used the digital version of the Trampoline Freddie stamp (but it is available in rubber, too) and colored it with markers.  I then die cut it out and framed it with navy cardstock.  The background was made by scribbling water-based markers onto watercolor paper, spritzing liberally with water, then adding chunky pretzel salt onto the piece and letting it dry.  It created this cool pattern! 

 Here is a photo of the entire panel. I actually made this months ago but couldn’t bring myself to use it for a while since I liked it so well!


Supplies: I Brake for Stamps Trampoline Freddie (digi) (Also available as rubber Trampoline Freddie (rubber) and in a stamp set Freddie, Mice and More rubber sheet), Bad Memory Sentiment stamp, Spectrum Noir alcohol markers, Versafine Majestic Blue ink, Background uses watercolor paper and Tombow water-based markers, Love Nicole brand sugar dots. Gina k/Thermoweb Double Stitched Rectangle die set.

Gosh, your background is stunning. I love the results a lot. That cute frog reminds me of the Looney Tunes frog as a kid. It only sang for the owner and made the owner look like a loser when it wouldn't sing for others. LOL.
