Frog in the Basket

I can't remember the last time that I made a card using a large oval.  I don't even own a large oval die or oval cutter or anything of the sort.  This week's Freshly Made Sketch was a little challenging for me because I had to free-hand my oval.  What did I learn from the sketch challenge?  I learned that it may be time to invest in something (probably a big shot die) that cuts ovals.  There seems to be an oval theme going on between several different sketch challenges lately, perhaps that means that ovals are "in" right now and I need to get with it and use them more.

The colors I used on this card are Pacific Point, Daffodil Delight, and Gumball Green.  I ran the daffodil oval through my Big Shot with the square lattice textured impressions folder to add just a little something around my stamped image.  The bicycle, frog, and swirly (that shows the frogs motion) come from the Moving Forward set (RMHC set this year).  The banner greeting is from Itty Bitty Banners and is cut with the matching framelits dies.  I used my favorite patterns designer series paper, for the Pacific Point stripes and finished off the card with three daffodil delight brads.
