Having some (small) design skillz I was thinking about trying to create
something myself. Plus, there may be free content image resources
already out there.

I don't know but I would assume not. It isn't listed on the FSF's list
of GPL-compatible licenses, although the FSF does recommend it for
non-software, non-documentation media. However, consdering the FSF don't
believe their freedoms should apply to non-software content that's not
really a great indorsement. I think it would be an idea to contact the
FSF directly and ask them.
Certainly, from the perspective of the FSF I'm dubious as to the
"freeness" of the Attribution-Sharealike CCPL. I'm still unsure if the
CCPL requires a modifiable copy be made available and have yet to hear a
convincing argument that it does. Again, some research, perhaps even
contacting the Creative Commons, might be required.
