PBSC August - Anything Goes (Optional 'Water and/or Watercolour')

It's the first Saturday of the month, so that means it's time for a new Penny Black Saturday Challenge...where the theme is:

'Anything Goes'
or
'Water and/or Watercolour'

As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome 1-2-3 Stitch:
Prize - a $20 voucher!

I went with a mixture of water and watercolours...along with some of the frogs from the 'Toadily' set. I stamped the frogs on to some watercolour paper, coloured them using watercolour pencils, then carefully cut them out. I made a simple watercoloured background using Distress Inks (Stormy Sky, Faded Jeans, Mermaid Lagoon, Pine Needles & Forest Moss) on damp watercolour paper...I was aiming to create a sort of riverbank effect. I then added my frogs over the top using 3D foam pads.


I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
