-I love these frogs and they are fun to color in, I used Prismacolor pencils and baby oil for blending with paper stumps.
-All edges but the black are lightly ink distressed.
-I used Sakura gel pen, the Stampin Up Mat Pack and Making Memories paper piercer for my faux stitches.
-Crop a dile was used for setting the musical note eyelets.
-The eyelets go thru the top three layers; they have a hole in them which showed the green color under it so I used a black marker to color in the cardstock.

I love these frogs too, Roxie! The notes are a great embellishment, and I thought the stitches were real! Great job, and thanks for a great sketch!
