Colour and Ink: Ooopps

Supplies: Pollycraft Designs Marcel the Frog - digital image,

Tim Holtz Alterations Die, MME - Stella Rose 6x6 Paper Pack,

MME buttons - wild asparagus, Washi tape EDT Teal from

The Greeting Farm, Textured cardstock - Papermania, sentiment

computer generated, adhesive, white gel pen and glue dots.

I forgot a friend's Birthday in February - isn't that just so bad? I still can't quite believe it. Sending this card as an "I'm sorry... I frog-got!" with a pack of handmade cards to apologise!

The wonderful digi is by Paula over on Tales from Pollycraft. I am entering it into Pollycraft Monday Challenge - "Teens" this week - while my friend isn't quite a teenager.... I think you could send it to a teenager if you forgot their birthday!.

Also entering it into this week's Tuesday Trigger on Moxie Fab World - button, button! - (inspiration photo above). I used the repetition of the buttons and the blue colour tone in my card.

Thanks for peeking and I hope you have a great weekend. It's a holiday here in Ireland again today and a lot of the school children are off, I am bringing my son's class to the movies for his birthday! Wish me luck!!!
