High Hopes Stamps - Froggy Gift Valentine

Howdy -

If you ask me what was the first High Hopes Stamp  you purchased.... I ordered a few in my very first order many many years ago. This was in that first order and is one of my all time favorites. I just adore it! Always makes me smile and it is the PERFECT Valentine image!

Froggy Gift 


Fabulous right? I just giggle when I pull this one out to work with it.  I colored with my Copics (colors below) and then I went to pull papers I happened to have the scrap from the piece I used last week from My Minds Eye and it just looked too good to not use it. I also decided to keep it as a CAS Clean and Simple card. Normally I stack up lots of layers with it, and it just felt right as a CAS today. I used a zig zag stitch and attached it all to a kraft card stock base. Three small buttons in the corner and just felt good. I don't say that too often when doing a CAS card.

Copics used -


Just a perfect card for that special someone on Valentines day. It kind of reminds me of one of those images from a Valentine when I was a kid. Now that would be called a Vintage Valentine... Not quite an antique yet.

Hope you have a blessed day -
HUGS and
