This little froggie on a leaf so green
Cutest little froggie I have ever seen
But Froggies come and froggies go
You're always in my heart, you know
Used my scallop punch for the lily pad and I was pretty happy with how it turned out. Background is a new technique at technique junkies - tinfoil your background with double stick tape or xyron; alcohol ink to color, cuttlebug emboss and then clear emboss.
Now if I can keep that soused frog from falling off his pad, I will be doing well, as the toads are already schnockered today!

Wow! That bugged background is wonderful! How did you get those beautiful colors? It reminds me of being underwater and looking up toward the sunny sky. Wonderful.

See that shadow? That shadow under the lilly pad? That's a big ole schnockered toad that fell off his lily pad and is swimming around in the mossy stuff looking for his pad! Serves him right for making fun of the smaller lily pad inhabitants! Let's just let him keep looking...his pad is comfy huh? Want some tea?
Good job keeping your cats at bay.....or is that something yet to come? Yikes! Love your card! The background you achieved is awesome...its so watery, sorta froggie, sorta erie looking! That must be what the pond looks like to a schnockered frog! Good job getting *that look* Snort!

Very cute scene! Love the background and the scalloped lily pad! Darling frog! He'd better hold on 'cause all the schnockered frogs are making waves! You just know it's gonna happen at Mothermark's Tea Party no matter where she holds it!

That background is so beautiful. The embossing just makes it even more interesting. I love your little scalloped lilly pad. That background makes me think of a Monet painting.

I'm with the others, do share how you made that wonderful background. Your sweet little frog looks as if he needs to hold on tight. At least if he falls off he'll be just as happy in the water.

That water looks so inviting! Love the colors. You did such a super job here. Your froggie looks about ready to jump in. What fun he'll have in that gorgeous water! I think I see an upside down fish in there. No, that was on my sisters card. Sorry, I got confused for a minute. Awesome card. TFS :0)
