I think there is a frog plague going on in my craft room. LOL! This is my 6th frog card this week. I am having so much fun creating cards with the frogs from retired SU So Hoppy Together stamp set.
Double Trouble Challenge fun challenge this week includes, Thing 1: a fun fold. Thing 3 include a frog in honor of Frog Jumping Day on May 13. Thing 2 Double Dare is enter at Crafting Happiness Challenge which is also celebrating frogs.
I tam calling this an off center gate fold. On the right section, I added rainbow colored scraps from the stash. On the left, I did a background with butterflies and bees also from the SU stamp set. I colored the frog with SU blend pens and die cut it with an oval die. And added google eyes because every frog needs google eyes right? The sentiment is also retired SU and is die cut with an SU speech bubble die. Inside, I added a blank insert stamped with the bees up in the corner.
Linking to Make the Cards Challenge which is also having a 1, 2, 3
3 embellishments-tiny blue sequins at the frog's feet to add sparkle to the water, 2 die cuts--oval and speech bubble, 1 stamped image--frog.
When my son was a toddler, I had a poem in his room that said something about boys with a frog in their pocket, so I think this also meets the challenge at The Paper Players, cards for boys.
Have a fun Frog Jumping Day

I have loved all of your frog cards! They're so much fun. And, yes, every frog needs googly eyes. Those silly little embellishments give them personality and expression.
