You are Unique Card (Kitty Bee Designs Spotlight)

Hi everyone :-D 

Today it´s my turn to be on the spotlight over at Kitty Bee Designs and I made this CAS (clean and simple), You are Unique Card. 

I used super cute image 'Froggie Cutie' from 2013 Good Luck Froggies Release. 

"Frogs are symbols of prosperity, wealth, friendship, and abundance in many cultures. In other cultures they symbolize fertility. In the Native American culture of the Southwestern United States, the frog carries a piece of wood in its mouth because the Mojave people believe frogs brought fire to humans. For the ancient Romans, the frog was believed to bring good luck to one's home. Native Aborigines of Australia believe that frogs brought the thunder and rain. Frogs are said to be effective in speeding up recovery from disease. Among the ancient Egyptians and Greeks, frogs symbolized inspiration and fertility. In ancient Egypt, Hekt, the frog goddess, protected newborn babies, hence frogs were symbols of fertility and birth. The frog is also said to attract true friends and to help find long-lasting love."

Details about my card... 

I made background in MS Word. I added 6 recolored (light grey) images and one b&w image in MS Word document. I printed out document on a white cardstock paper. 

Then I colored the image with colored pencils and blended colors with paper blending stump and baby oil. I smeared froggie's eyes, so I printed one more image on a piece of cardstock paper, fussy cut eyes, colored edges with black permanent pen and glued them over smeared eyes. 

I added gloss resin on froggie's belly, dots and heart to create glossy accents and to add some dimension to the image. 

I added 3-D foams behind the colored panel and glued it on a card base. 

I wrote the sentiment on my computer, using Stays In The Cave' free font from Kevin&Amanda. I  wrote it in a text box. I printed the sentiment on a piece of white cardsotck paper, cut it and covered whole banner with gloss resin. After drying, I added 3-D foams behind the banner and placed it on a card. 

Card dimensions are 139 mm x 101 mm (5 1/4" x 4").
