Edit to post ...

I was so inspired by this challenge (and realizing I really don't have any "Little Boy" images) I purchased this little guy yesterday ... made a card last evening and had to share it with you all! Isn't he cute ... and such a "BOY!" LOL!!

Rember, you can "click on any of my images for a closer look". This little guy is by Art Impressions and I've colored him using SU watercolor pencils and blender pen. I've handwritten the sentiment since I didn't have a coordinating stamp and it was 11:30 pm and didn't feel like computer generating one!! My Bad!!!

The background paper I created using my Cuttlebug Victoria embossing folder and double embossing. Not familiar with double embossing?? Let me know and I'll do a post on it for you! Very easy and looks awesome!! I added Crystal Effects to the frog to make him shiny (you can probably see it if you click on the image) don't know that you can tell here! Thanks for taking a peek!! Have a great day!
