Flashback Friday: Frogs and Flies

Welcome to another Flashback Friday!! I have a cute set for us to flash back to this week, it's called Frogs and Flies from 1998.

Isn't this set fun! I especially love the saying "Time's fun when you're having flies"........ too stinkin' cute! I haven't touched this set in a looonnnngggggg time so I figured it was time to pull it out.

I love putting a modern twist to an older stamp set. I went for a clean look, not country like the older cards were. Here's the details:

1. My card base is Bashful Blue with a layer of Chocolate Chip and DSP.

2. Stamped the frog on Glossy White card stock with StazOn Black. Colored it with blender pen and markers.

3. Stamped the sentiment on Whisper White with StazOn Black and added a banner end with the hexagon punch.

4. Adhered the frog to the card with SNAIL and added the greeting with dimensionals.

That's it! Super quick and fun! Thanks for checking out my flashback card, I had a blast making it!

If it doesn't move...stamp it!!
