Prince Oliver Card

My friend just had a baby boy and I wanted to make a fun little card for his gift bag.  I really liked the frog from Create a Critter.

I used the shadow image from the frog (3.89 w x 4.15 h) to make the card.  I copied the image and flipped it and welded the two together at the top of the eyes.

In order to size the card pieces real easy, I put them all on the mat at the same time.  They are grouped (all are blue) and I change the size all together.  Then I ungroup and rearrange the images on the mat by paper color.

Here are the pieces all cut out.

I added stickles for eyes, crown jewels and a mouth.  I made the eyes Waterfall to match the beautiful eyes of Oliver's brother and sister.  The jewels and mouth are Xmas red.  I cut a scrap of paper to put behind the crown instead of cutting out a second crown without the holes.

And here is the finished card.  I just adhered it to the front of the gift bag.
