Frogs, Stencils, and Inks

I needed some frogs for a project I'm doing.  So I found some copyright-free pictures and traced them onto freezer paper.

I cut them out and ironed them to some lime green fabric.  I got out my Tsukineko inks and those Fantastix "coloring tools" and inked in the frogs.

Then I heat set the inks with a hot iron and added fusible to the back side.  I removed all the paper and cut them out with my favorite sharp scissors.  Here they are stuck to my design wall.  I think I'm going to need at least one more frog for this project.
