Inspiration for your Imagination...
Scrappin' Makes Me Hoppy
{PROJECT PAGE}

 

Here's a cute idea for your scrapbooking buddies. And remember it's fun once in a while to make something for yourself. That's what I did with this hanging card for my work space. It's made using the Rain Frog pattern. Here's a few other possiblities for the inspirational phrases...

  •  "Singing in the Rain"

  • "If you want to see the rainbow you got to sit through a little rain."

  • The background is several layers of papers in staggered sizes.

  • Corners are added using a pattern with stripes. The layer of blue paper right behind the frog is torn along the top and the edges curled to look a bit more like water.

  • The layers are all then stitched on the sewing machine.

  • The lettering was intended to look random like a ransom note so all the lettering was printed on cardstock, then cut by hand.

  • I cut the frog on my cutting machine, inked the edges and pieced it together.

  • The effect of raindrops was done using JudiKins Diamond Glaze. Just add a dot and pull upwards on the paper to get the rain drop effect. Allow it to dry thoroughly before adding the hanger.

  • Add a hanger using a mix of yarns and ribbons and knotted on the frontside of the card.

And there you go!!!
