Happy Friday

Hello.  Welcome.  It's sunny, it's warm, it's Friday.  Who could ask for more.  Over at Unity it's also Friends With Flair day.  Here's a little something.  Kinda like something I made previously.  But different in it's own special way. 



I made this background at the same time as I made THIS ONE, so look there if you want the step by step.  I stamped Unity Stamp Co There Was a boy onto white tissue paper and coloured him.  If you are doing this technique use white tissue, it keeps the colours clean, and you want the thin stuff without a wax coating.  Then I added a frog from a serviette and the little girl from Unity's First Love set.








Here's the finished framed piece.  I generated the sentiment on the computer and I have also gone along the lines of the frog with a thin black pen to give him more definition and make him look a bit more like a stamp.

Thanks for dropping by.  I think I shall go and have a cup of tea and sit in the sun for a while.  Hugz

Wonderful piece, Gail!!! Loved the previous one, too, but this one is really cute with the girl kissing the frog. Perfect. I still haven't tried stamping on tissue. But now that I am doing a little art journal projects I will have to do that. Thanks for the inspiration!!!
Saw you on FWF!

Somehow, I missed the first piece, so glad that you referrenced it, Gail! I really do appreciate the humor more in this one, perhaps because it is so well illustrated with the little girl and frog! Made me smile! Great backgrounds on both projects. I am going to have to try this.

What an absolutely fantastic piece! It is bursting with whimsy and wit, yet it also shows a lot of sophisticated techniques. I'm always impressed by the unique way you view the world and your art reflects that. I look forward to your creations because they are always unexpected and always wonderful. This is no exception! Love it!
