I am running late for Mothermark's Teaparty this week!! All are welcome... join the fun here: http://mothermark.blogspot.com/
I found my frog image from the internet. I wanted him big. This card measures 6 1/4 x 4 1/2. I colored him using prisma pencils and blended with OMS. My lily pad was cut from a piece of celery cs that I had left from a technique-gone-wrong-challenge. It was the technique that embossed wax paper, then iron the wax paper on cs. Then I decided to put the piece of cs back through the embossing folder. I didn't like how it looked for the card I was making at the time. I hung on to it, and it worked for what I needed today! Love when that happens!
I have no idea what is happening at the teaparty today... I'm sure it is entertaining, as usual!!

I don't know why but for some reason I'm thinking "Oh, gramma, what big frogs you have!" Seriously, I love it! What a beautiful frog it is!!! Seems a lot of us have been repurposing this week, all over SCS. I love it when that happens. Your card is wonderful and so fitting for the party this week!

I was going to comment on this this morning, but ran out of time when I had to reinstall the printer driver and print something for my aunt, all before I dashed out for the train. What a perfect frog, what a perfect card. Perfect for the teapot!

Well this is surely Technique Gone Right! Love your huge card with that cute image and flower! Isn't good that none of us ever throw anything away?!! It pays to hoard.

Love your extra large froggy here. So cute! Looks like he is about ready to jump off that amazing lilly pad. Way cool card! TFS :0)
