IllustrationFriday: Leap

Here are two different digital styles I've been developing. Above is the flat textural look, and below is the look of watercolor.
Let me know what you think! I began with the drawing below, for our daughter's 4th birthday invites. I put the frog into two different settings to play with, for IllustrationFriday. Seemed like the natural pond setting makes more sense with the traditional look, and the sidewalk setting lends itself to the more modern and fun look that uses odd patterns.

I like the original :)

Hmmm. It would be interesting to see the contrast between the more consciously digital style and the traditional setting. Of the two styles, I like the digital one best, but that may be because of the stronger, graphic colours and background.

Cute frog.

You know, I like the second one best - the one with more shading. Is that a froggie cupcake in it's frog hand? Cute! And I think that is such a cute idea for an invitation.
