Anywho, over at the "Just Us Girls" has a photo inspiration challenge for today, February 29th. so here is my card.
This image is from a company called "Alotastamps", that apparently closed it's doors a while back, I tried to look for this stamp and I couldn't find it, but I love this frog, happily submerged into what appears to be a Martini....."Shaken not Stirred" please!! Hmm.. I don't know about this one, I think it's both shaken and stirred, LOL!!
I just stamped the happy froggy onto a panel of Canson water color paper and colored it with my new Derwent pencils, the color green is just perfect for this frog. The olives were colored with SU Old Olive, I stamped one extra and snipped it out and placed it there on the side falling, I think this frog is just about done!!
I added a bit of Crystal Effects to the glass and the drops.
Here is a picture of the finished inside.
This stamps are from the Retired SU "Happy Hour" stamp set.
Here is the picture that inspired this card.
Thank you for stopping by, until next time, happy stamping.
Hugs from Maria.

Ha ha! I don't think that was his first Martini! He looks pretty comfortable in this one! Happy Leap Year Day!!
Ha, ha!!! I think you're right Patti, it looks like he needs to look for his designated "driver", LOL!!
Funny ! Really cute and takes me back to the younger days when I drank Martinis ! If I saw a frog in my glass I would have freaked out !!
This is clever and perfect for Leap Year Day ...I am sure after that last drink this critter had, he could really LEAP !!
What a HOOT! Love it! It's 5 o'clock somewhere. Not a care in the world. Although I'm not a martini kind of girl, I would take a margarita please. LOL
