What's Happening

If you've followed my blog for a while you already know a few things about me - one of them being that I love frogs.  Yes, I do!  The real ones are pretty cute but they're especially cute when they're on a card.  

This one is from Unity and I love the dreamy look in those eyes.  I don't have a dreamboat to send this too anymore - unless I can find George Clooney's address - so, I just used the "Sup" sentiment from the set of stamps and I guess I'll be sending this to my brother - not a very good substitute for George but he'll have to do!    I also used a wave type stencil from Newton's Nook in the background and then mounted him on a circle die of scrap polka dot paper.  

I'll enter this in the challenges at The Male Room (dots and/or stripes - polka dot circle and wavy stripes) and Critter Crazy Challenges (anything goes with a critter).


Thanks for stopping by..........and keep smiling!

  1. I never thought I'd hear myself say this, but that frog is so cute! The stenciling is perfect behind him. If you find out George's address, I will pay you to share and I promise not to share it with anyone else. I will be happy to hand deliver a card from you to him!

  15. This frog looks like he could be plotting something, Lynn! He's really adorable and I love the sentiment! The stenciling in the background adds depth and interest without taking away from the fun frog! I think your brother will love it! (George Clooney is pretty hard to beat!)
