I’m so excited that Kristina Werner’s color challenge this week works perfectly for a Passover card! I’ve been feeling the need to make more, especially with these adorable froggies! Here are this week’s colors:

I decided to do another scalloped circle card. The circle reminds me of a seder plate. And the frogs, the second plague, are one of my family’s traditional Passover symbols. I used textured cardstock for the Kiwi Kiss and the Baja Breeze. I liked how it adds just a little more dimension.

Hoppy Passover to you and yours!

I mentioned a couple of days ago that the Decor Elements tree I put up also has a matching stamp set. It is a gorgeous tree and comes with some very nice sentiments as well. To make this card, I inked up the leaves with my Kiwi Kiss ink pad, and then colored over the trunk and branches with a Chocolate Chip marker. I used a sponge dauber in Kiwi Kiss around the edges of the white as well.
