happy square root day...

What, you mean you didn't know? You didn't celebrate square root day?! Did you know square root day only happens 9 times in a century? According to Wikipedia, "Square Root Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated on days when both the day of the month and the month are the square root of the last two digits of the year". Pretty cool, huh?

So to celebrate I'll leave you with a square card. This card was created for another EtsyInspired challenge. Sara's challenge was to use acetate for the card. Love the look of acetate, just don't love photographing it too much.

Isn't that frog cute?! It is a digital stamp from Victoria Case. This is the first time that I've tried using a digital stamp. I cheated a bit and colored it on my computer using photoshop. One of the cool things about digi stamps is that I can resize this and flip it to work with my card.

supplies used:
digi stamp: Victoria Case
ribbon: Autumn Leaves

Have a fantastic Square Root Day!
