I made this for one of my best friends who has just had a knee operation to repair a torn tendon. She collects frogs.
The background paper is Provocraft Illuminations.
I stamped the frog on dark green Bazzill with Versamark and embossed him with black EP. After cutting him out I painted some little spots with iridescent gold H2Os, and then over-painted the whole frog with iridescent green. I love those interference colours. I used a white Sakura glaze pen for his eyes. (His, should be hers...).
I stamped the wheel with black Staz-On and coloured it with H2Os and cut it out.
The springs are green wire coiled round a fine knitting needle.
I printed the sentiment on the computer. The edges are sponged with ColorBox pigment Glacier Ice, and I added Dew-Drops.
Both the frog and the sentiment are raised up on foam tape.
