This is for Sketch Challenge 107 to use punched or cut out objects. I chose designer paper that would look cut with a green frog and went from there. I used watercolor paper to create scenes on for the froggy pond. I sponged bashful blue for the water and used a fine watercolor brush to create the tall marsh grass. I used the tip of my brush to daub on blush blossom and bashful blue for little flowers in the grass. I sketched the tree on the second layer and watercolored with close to cocoa reinker and then the fern stamp from Watercolor Minis for the leaves. I used the cloud template to create the sky by sponging on Bashful blue. I used a sponge dauber to apply a little cocoa ink along the border of the pond. I used my Cuttlebug templates for the flowers, leaves and frog.

As always, Kittie, I am amazed at your artistry. the pond you painted is so beautiful! As a strictly "color within the lines" stamper, I am completely in awe. I also love the frog and how the little cut out flowers go so well with the designer paper. Fabulous!
