"Ribbit Ribbet here's Bob and Benji "Welcome Sweet Sketch Wednesday lovers here it is another wonderful Wednesday and in my neck of the woods its raining again. Yes again!!! Roll on summer! It's the first day on Spring on the 1st September and I can't wait and that means Day Light Savings starts in late September more day light than dark. I shouldn't complain too much as it's still winter here and last night we didn't need any heating in the house it was quite warm.

Oh Kathie great take on the sketch challenge! That image is the cutest ever.
Kathie - it feels like winter here. My house is 18 C and it is really cold out - we have had a terrible summer, just terrible! My computer says it is 6 C out right now!!! (I am assuming your temp is in Celsius like us?)
Love that the flowers match perfectly to your card. I really need to find myself some "glass coat" as I love the way it looks!!

Wow Kathie they are so cute. I love this image and you've coloured them so well. It's raining here too in Ireland but sure what's new. Did get one day on the beach on Sunday. Even managed a barbecue. First one of the summer and probably last going by today's weather. Yucky!!!
Fab card Kathie, the colours look so good together and I love your great shading. The shadows on the lily pad are perfect!

Oh kathie, You always do such a wonderful job with your cards. This has to be one of my favorites of Sally Ann's images. These little frogs are just too cute. You have done a fantastic job coloring them up and I lvoe the color scheme you used. I am enjoying the weather cooling down here. Fianlly, no air conditioning on. Wionter is just around the corner. I hope you enjoy your upcoming summer.
