This card is in memory of my pet frog, "Froggie"....I watched him grow from a tadpole into the frog that he was. He spent his winters in a 60 gallon aquarium where I work, feeding on crickets from the local cricket farm (one of my co-workers had a daughter that worked there) and lived in the little ornamental pond in our yard during the spring, summer and fall. He was with us for about 3 years. Then one rainy spring day, he went a-courtin' and we never saw him again. (Stamp is by Whipper Snapper)
I also managed to use the S.U. set from Sunday's challenge to actually make flowers instead of noses. The set is called Pick A Petal. Kim says they'll make good turkeys for November too!

Cute card, sad story. LOL
ReplyDeleteAnd, yes, they make great turkey feathers for Thanksgiving! :)
DeleteSuch an adorable groggy image. I think your froggy turned into some one's Prince!
ReplyDeleteFroggy not groggy!
ReplyDeleteI love your froggy card, and those big bold flowers look SO pretty! I'm sorry your froggy hopped off, but I'm sure he's happy wherever he is :) Ribbit :)
ReplyDeleteAww -- both of your little froggie's are soooo cute. How fun was that having a pet frog -- he's probably have ribbit of a good time where ever he is. Back to your card -- love the image and the background DP. I like your flower cards too -- nice and simple but very nice.

Your frog card is adorable and I LOVE your flower cards. SO pretty! Hope your froggie found love. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your frog card! Where did you get the image? A stamp?
ReplyDeleteI also hope Froggie found love and set up housekeeping in her pond and they were blessed with many tadpoles.

LOL, what a fun card that cute frog makes! Definitely a perfect image for a 'green' challenge. Nice job on the florals too. The white space and brads balance the big, bold flowers beautifully!

That frog is fantastic. I thought of frogs today too...but don't have any stamps nearly as cute as this guy...so I went with leaves instead :-) Thanks for playing along.
ReplyDeleteGlad the set is called pick a petal and not pick a nose! Okay, sorry, I just had to! LOL! Froggy is adorable! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLOL!!! Now my brain is working overtime.....hmmmm...
DeleteCute frog card, and pretty flower cards...Cute story about your frog, I bet he hopped onto "greener" pastures/pond.
