Hi there! Last night, we went to Cheesecake Factory. Needless to say, I have lunch and dessert for today! :) They serve so much food. I also went to bed really early as opposed to my usual nap, then up until 3 am routine. I hope that habit is gone now! Anyway, before dinner, I got a chance to make this quick card. My friend, Sarah, told me about the Scrapmaster's Paradise color challenges. I love color challenges, so I was eager to give it a try. I dug out one of my CHF Scrapblock background stamps! This time it's a distressed grid. I think I may like this one better than the distressed polka dots! I used my SU! marker to apply the ink since I did not have soft suede ink pad. It worked fine on that huge rubber stamp, but came out a little darker than I thought. I thought soft suede would be obviously lighter than chocolate chip, but maybe not!
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your Friday Eve! :)

I love the way you used the colors! This is just too cute!
That little frog is so cute!
Even though the soft suede ended up darker than you planned, I think it looks great! It seems like all my SU markers end up being darker than their corresponding ink pads.
Thank you for joining us at SPCC! Your little frog card is wonderful and made me smile.

You markered a background stamp? thats a lot of work! This came out great! I have a CHF coupon burning a whole in my pocket and I'm really having trouble narrowing down which background stamps I want. Love the Cheesecake Factory. The first few times I went there I ate so much for my meal I didn't have room to order any cheesecake!
OMG Ash, this is adorable!
