Magnolia Spring Kit......

Good Afternoon!!
I got my Spring Kit from Magnolia yesterday
and just had to do a card today before I started
my housework! They are darling!!!

I played along in a couple of challenges:
First I used my punches for the Just Magnolia Challenge
and then Simon Says Stamp's challenge is Let's go to the movies
 so I did The Princess and the Frog.

I again added crackle paint to everything!! The papers
are from Memory Box which I got from the Stamp Show.
To get my frog in there I added a tag and sentiment from the kit.



Isn't he cute poppin' his head out there! The sentiment on it
was perfect for the Princess and the Frog movie:


I think he really pops on that Kraft paper!! I painted
his crown with Dragonfly twinkling h20's and a
white gel pen for the tips! They show up nicely on the Kraft.

Well thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you all get your kits soon!
They are all so cute! The princess theme is big in my house so
the girls love it as well and I am sure I will be stamping
them images all the time!! LOL
Have a lovely night!

:)Kathy

Absolutely beautiful. Love how you did the hidden tag for the frog. Fantastic stamps, still kicking myself for not ordering the kit.

Maria Therese said...

Gorgeous card!!

Christine said...

Oh, this is so cute!! Gorgeous card, and that peek a boo frog is perfect!

This kit is so much better, in my opinion, than the winter kit! Unfortunately, I did get the winter kit, and since I didn't really care for it, I did not get the spring kit! Ack!
