Instructions:
Watch this video to see how to make the “We Don’t Have It All Together” Winking frog.
This completed card measures 14.7 cm x 20.8 cm.
Make a tent fold card base from the 300gsm cardstock to measure 14.7 cm x 20.8 cm. Find the design paper in the paper pad collection. Cut to 14.6 cm x 20.7 cm. 
Distress the edges with the distressing tool. Adhere to the card base with double sided foam tape or foam dots. Taking the Aquarelle paper, stamp and color all the images. Die cut with the matching dies. Cut a few extras to support the paper and to make chipboards from the layers. Trim the Frog border to separate the different frogs as seen in the photo.


Shape the Lily’s and adhere together. 


Add the prills and glitter to the Lily’s. 


Stamp and cut strips from the sentiment, apply ink to all the edges. The sentiments will be adhered with foam dots or tape. 


Using the circle die from the Stately circles set, die cut the stamped image of the Frogs under the mushroom. 


Taking the Ornate Borders die cut the frame so the borders will peep out from behind the circle. Taking the Raindrops on Roses die, cut this twice. Cut both in half so you have four lace borders. Ink all the lace border edges, including the circle. 


Make a ribbon from the ribbon. Adhere all to the card front. Adding layer by, layer and applying foam tape or foam dots as needed to keep the height balanced. Glitter is added to the raindrops and the lace border edges to help the card to pop.


Don't you love these little critters!?! Love the borders...and the little frog with the crown is the fav of the month... Don't forget to go on back to the Heartfelt Creations blog to check out all the rest of the eye candy over there. Have a fun week,

Post Note: 
I am so looking forward to this weekend...it is full of excitement and wonder. I am booked into a Work Shop with Finnabair in Belgium. For those that do not know her...she is a real sweetheart and does wonderful mixed media...I love her work and have followed her for years. She works under the umbrella of Prima marketing....bells start to ring....now you know her. I finally got to meet her at the CHA in January. of this year. Anna told me she was doing a WS over this way, Belgium, which is about 2-3 hours drive from where I live....a hop skip and a jump away...lol...so needless to say, as soon as I got home I looked it up and booked...a double WS...so I am doing both...it's going to be all day fun fun fun! I will show you what I learnt and how much fun I had when I get photos edited. To make my weekend even better...my DH has booked us into Cirque Du Soleil the following day, Sunday....so looking forward to this one. From what I have seen, and heard, the theme is under the sea? So looking forward to that one. We go every year...it's our thing, our 'yearly date'. I love all the costumes etc...but the body can do!...theirs not mine...lol
So I will be having a named packed fun weekend...need the rest of the week to get over it....
See you next time...oxo
