Kiss Me Frog

Today's card was inspired by the Kiss Me sentiment that came in a card making kit that I picked up 2 years back after Valentine's Day at Target and a couple challenges that are out right now.  The sentinment is glittered and pop dotted and then my crafty little sis, Ashley, the Cricut Crazed Lady, suggested a frog.   I picked the frog from the Sweethearts cartridge, cut at 3 1/4".   I only cut the shadow, in a light yellow, and the main cut, in a green/yellow dot paper from Making Memories.  I inked them is the moss colored Cats Eye pigment and then used Studio G cranberry and inked the crown that it cut,   You can still see the dots but, it's red and not green which is good.   I added some small black gems to the crown, google eyes to the frog and a black string for his mouth. 
I used a red A2 card base and then matted a strip of the green dot paper onto the striped sheet from the DCWV Citrus stack.   I ran a ribbon over the seem that is pink, green and red, it's from Michael's.  ONce I had it assemebled, I thought it needed something else so, I added the shiny heart confetti .  
Oh, and on the inside, I mounted pink paper with a strip of the green dot that I punched some hearts out of.   I inked them with the same green as the rest.   I think it turned out adorably!!!
