waiting for olaf - aA color challenge

  • nia
a second page with this exquisite colour palette
that's not a frog king, it's olaf, a common toad, who visited us last summer in the evening on our terrace.
He's not a good-looking chap, but he's very useful because he eats lots of slugs and insects and he finds plenty of them on our veranda.
I hope he visits us again this summer, but if not, I've bought some watercolours with meaningful names like mountain grass, mountain grass sunny or in the shadow and spooky forest to paint a souvenir picture of him.

What a charming story and a lovely photo! I love frogs and toads because they are useful and the croaking in spring brings anticipation for summer. Great layout with fantastic colors.

Love the color palette and great photo of the frog. We have tree frogs near the pond. They sing all night long! Wonderful page!

Smart move to buy the watercolors--with any luck you will have Olaf AND a painting. The vertical paintbrush is a delightful touch.

Love this layout and the story. We've had a few chipmunks show up for a while, and then they disappear. Love the pops of yellow.

I use the smallest reason and every opportunity to buy watercolours. ;).
