Hi! This card was made for today's Inspiration Challenge: PB Teen. Pottery Barn has an entire collection of fabulous teen decorating items!
I chose this bedroom ensemble: http://www.pbteen.com/products/p3774....cfm?pkey=fnew
Last evening it got below 30 degrees here! In Florida! So, when I went out to get the dog food this morning, I was frightened by a TOAD! It had buried into the food and was just staring at me after I scooped it up and dumped it into Dog's bowl! (Dog is HIS NAME! Hey, I didn't name him! 2 year old Markie did! LOL) I dumped the whole bowl back in the container and called Mark to have HIM feed the dogs! LOL!
So, I was certain I would be using this frog today! LOL! I LOVE Basic Grey's Sultry paper, and it fit this color combo perfectly! I stamped the image on watercolor paper and colored it with SU! markers. Next, I used an aqua painter to blend the colors. I cut it out and mounted it with foam tape.
The corner embellishments were cut with a Cuttlebug die. I sponged the paper with Old Olive to darken it.
The button/brads are from K&Company. The butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch.
I embossed the white background with a Cuttlebug embossing folder.
