I created this card for MrsLaird's HYCCT challenge to create a card inspired by a fairy tale. I fell in love with this frog as soon as I saw it in the Paper Smooches release party here on SCS a couple months ago and I knew it would be perfect for this challenge. :-)
The lily pads are something I made up by die cutting some ovals and then I took my scissors and cut out the notches. I added teeeeeny flowers to the small lily pads and I used an old Creative Memories decorative rotary cutter to cut the "wave-y" water edge on the blue cardstock. The frog is colored with Copic markers - love love love that adorable frog!

This is awesome! Love your fantastic frog! He may be the cutest frog prince I've ever seen. Your lily pads are ingenius and I completely applaud your gluing skills because that is one miniscule cute flower! Love it!
