Have a hoppy day

Corny but I love this fun sentiment.

My image is based on a picture I found on google images when I was looking for a frog picture that was fun for a card for Jamye, Lisa's sister see the link here.

I had a play with some alcohol inks and moonglow spritz to get my mottled green card for my frog on glossy card.The fun bit was making the hammock threading hemp through the textured paper and around part of a kebeb stick and getting them to stay in place whilst the glue dried. I think the flowers which were a freebie from a magazine and the charms which are out of a kit of ATC's just finish it off without taking anything form the focal froggy point.

I will be entering it into the following challenges:-
Simon says- tent card and some charms
Stamped art by Lisa special RAK challenge- frog card
Prairie fairy friday-tent card
Saturday challenge-no patterned paper
Sew many challenges-anything goes
