Hey Y’all!!! Teresa here. Oh I’m pretty sure I’m in love with Spinach and Ramona? They are the cutest little frogs and they are hopping in to tell you to have a ‘Hoppy’ day. What could be better? This stamp set, and matching die are so much fun. Be sure to check out them out at Prickley Pear. All the details for making this card yourself are below (including links).

Frog Pals Spinach and Ramona Stamp Set
The card base is cut from Real Red card stock. It’s cut to 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″ on the long side. Just a tip I learned. Make sure you use your bone folder and burnish the fold well so it doesn’t tear the paper.
I cut a piece of Color Me Happy patterned paper to 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″. Colors are perfect to be the background for my little frog friends. The patterned paper is glued directly to the card base using wet glue.
I cut a piece of Crushed Curry card stock to 4 1/2″ x 3 1/4″. I cut two more pieces of Color Me Happy and one piece of Flirty Flamingo.
Color Me Happy: 4 3/8″ x 1 7/8″, 4 3/8″ x 5/8″
Flirty Flamingo: 4 3/8″ x 1 1/2″
I glued the Flirty Flamingo card stock about 1/2″ from the top of the Crushed Curry. The Color Me Happy pieces are wet glued at the top and bottom to allow you to see the strip of Flirty Flamingo. A small strip of garden green grass that I cut using a border die is cut to 4 3/8″ long and glued right along the bottom edge.
The cute little frogs are tucked right under the grass and glued flat to the card. I think they might be holding hands. So sweet.
So many fun sentiments in this stamp set. I used 3 together and cut them like a banner. It’s popped up with foam tape too.
For a little added fun used the little sun stamp. Stamped it on Neenah paper, fussy cut it and colored it with Y18. Popped it up as well.
Aren’t you just in love with Spinach and Ramona?
