Inside says "...and we have that in spades". I finally had some time to actually MAKE something with all of my stuff instead of organizing/purging it (again)! Fun challenge today to be inspired by and/or incorporate playing cards in our creations. With the help of my MISTI (how did I do ANYTHING without it before?) and some masking, I could make my double-ended frogs. I have a spade stamp but it was much too large, so I pulled out a couple of hearts and stamped them upside down, then added "stems" with a Micron pen. I also masked the sentiment a few times so I could get a multi-colored dealie-o. This was a lot of fun, even if it did take up the majority of my day! (I'm a very s..l..o..w card maker). Thanks for looking!

Super creative to make your own playing cards with that adorable frog image....i would never have thought to do that. Also, turning the hearts to spades was a terrific idea. I love the sentiment.

Right into my favs, Sue. Those frogs are fab in both directions, and the heart/spades are terrific. Love the saying.......I'll be casing this for sure!!!
