Today I’m sharing a card using KLM Digital Design – Pre-colored Toad 1 from the new July 2024 release. This stamp is pre-coloured and can be used in so many different ways. You just have to use your imagination!

I began with a card base of 5.5″ x 4.25″ using Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. cardstock.  For the background, I cut Reminisce – The Menagerie Kit paper to the sizes of 5-3/8″ x 4-1/8″ and 2 pieces at .5″ x 4-1/8″. Recollections – Green cardstock was cut to the size of .75″ x 4-1/8″.  All of the edges were inked with Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Peeled Paint and then applied to the base card using double-sided tape.

The image was imported into Microsoft Word and I wanted the toad to be sitting on a lily pad, so within Microsoft Word, I added in an oval shape and then a triangular shape. The oval shape was made green and the triangle shape was made white. I positioned the toad where I wanted it to go and then printed out the combined image onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card.  Once the completed image was printed, I fussy cut around the image and attached it to some Recollections – Green cardstock with some tape and liquid glue. Once again, I fussy cut around the image. From the patterned paper, I also cut a couple of the lily pad flowers and popped them up on the lily pad using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape. Using a Cuttlebug, Lawn Fawn Lawn Cuts – Henry’s 123s, Lawn Fawn Lawn Cuts – Henry’s ABCs and Recollections – Black cardstock, I die cut the sentiment twice and then glued the pieces together. For the exclamation mark, I die cut 5 so that the dot would be at the same height as the other letters.

The card was now ready to assemble. I applied U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape to the finished image and popped it up onto the centre of the card. Liquid glue was added to the centre of each letter and they were adhered to the base card.
