Leap Frog Fairy
Our hostess for Mo's Challenge this week is Peggy Marsh. The challenge is a recipe: one ribbon, two buttons or brads, and three designer papers, and, of course, one of Mo's images!
I love frogs (That's another one of my collections. LOL!), so I chose this Mo image called "Spring Fairy Puddle".
I think this image personifies joy! Have you ever seen such a happy little face?! This image certainly was a joy to color, too. I took my colors from the new Basic Grey DP collection, "Green at Heart" (Appropriate for a frog, don't you think?), and colored it with Copics and Prismacolor pencils. The SU! CS is Kiwi Kiss and Melon Mambo. I love using designer paper for inspiration when coloring an image and choosing card stock. I end up combining colors that I never would have on my own.
I threaded a narrow piece of CS through the middle of the Martha Stewart Lattice border punch and finished the card off with buttons tied on with linen thread and a bright grosgrain ribbon.
The sentiment is part of a cone flower set, a free digital download from Paper Garden Projects. It comes in both jpg. and transparent png. formats.
This challenge should be a fairly easy one, so let's see what you can do with it!
