Warm Winter Wishes from Spinach & Ramona

Hello again, friends!  This is almost my last Christmas project, I promise!  

The first stamp set that I ever purchased from Prickley Pear Stamps was the darling Frog Pals - Spinach and Ramona stamp set.  I love this stamp set so much, and even more so after Sharon shared with me that Spinach and Ramona are their granddaughter's pet frogs!  How cute is that?    Anyhow, I was dying to dress them up for Christmas and create a card with them.

I colored them with Copic markers in traditional Christmas colors and added some gold accents using a gelly roll pen. I cut them out using the coordinating dies and set them aside. 

I created a layered tree using my Cricut, and I added some sparkle embossing paste that is nearly dried up to add snow.  I am loving the consistency of it for winter scenes, so I can't bear to throw it away, even though it is on its last leg.   
I tore two strips of white paper to create hills, and added the embossing paste to them, and set the wet items aside to dry completely.   I dry-embossed a white panel using a snowflake embossing folder from my stash and layered the panel on a piece of patterned paper.
I heat embossed a sentiment from the Santa and Rudolph stamp set and backed it with red glitter paper.   I adhered all of my elements to the card front and completed my card by adding some glass bubbles and a bow from my favorite ribbon.  I have had this ribbon in my stash for probably 20 years.  How crazy is that?! 
I have to say that this is my absolute favorite card that I have ever made!  I love all of the different texture, and of course the sweet frogs! 
Make sure to head to the shop and check out this sweet stamp set, and all of the other amazing goodies! 
Thank you so much for spending a few minutes with me!  I hope you love this card as much as I do! 
Merry Christmas to you and yours! 
Xoxo, Kim
