Scrappy Frogs Challenge #2

The challenge this week at Scrappy Frogs Challenge Blog (isn't that name fun to say? I just giggle when I say it) is an inspiration one! Again, not my strong suit but I gave it my best shot. There's a prize up for grabs so be sure you check out the challenge~ here!
So I'll admit it. I sat and stared at the picture for a long time. I even tried to see if anyone else had linked up their creation so I could just "peek" at what they did, sigh. LOL!
The main thing that I was drawn to was the soft blue color so that's where I began.
And here's what I came up with~ I used a sketch from the SCS Bella Forum, BSC63.

Supplies:
card size: 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
stamps: Daintybella, A muse essential ovals,
paper: TAC Gentle Beginnings,
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, VersaMagic Aspen Mist
others: copics, oyster bella baubles, baby blue stickles,
