The card base is 6.5 inches by 4.5 inches. There really isn't a good reason for choosing that size, but it was just how much I had of the base color- trying to use a scrap...LOL
The frog was cut from create-a- critter at 2.5 inches, and the "happy anniversary" is from elegant cakes. I trimmed the a to make it look like hoppy instead of happy. I'm not sure what the height of the phrase was, but I'll look for that detail in my Gypsy later.
I embossed the card base in my cuttle bug (swiss dots), sanded lightly than ran it back through the CB to flatten the dots. I really love this effect and it makes gluing much easier. The frog was also embossed with "spots and dots" and then lightly sanded. The border was punched using a Martha Stewart punch. And of course I had to add some bling to the crown.
For the inside I printed a note from my computer on regular white paper and attached it.
Cute card!!! I love how you use the bubble punch around the card... I really have to get back to crafting!!
