Time for another tea-party already!! Take a look at Cindy's adorable frog card HERE. Don't you just love that cute little flower on his front. Her front??
I had Unfrogettable out for one of the DTGD sketch challenges, and after seeing Cindy's sneak preview, I knew it was a safe bet to leave it on my desk.
So come on over to my pad for tea, and looks like some good tasty dragonflies are on the menu too.
This fits a business envelope. There are two base mats of Bazzill Bling in blue and green, and then some carefully hoarded Provocraft paper. I stamped the lily wheel several times and layered them up all over the place. They are very sturdy, they will stand up to the rush of frogs and tea-partiers. (By the way, check out the Giant Amazon WaterLily. I'm sorry you missed it when you all visited the Botanic Gardens here - they are currently restoring the greenhouse that they grow it in. It is truly huge, and according to one source I read will support a well-balanced adult. So who are the well-balanced adults at this party ;-).
I added the frogs, a little banner and a beaded dragonfly. I was going to do beaded frogs, but I love these little Unforgettable guys too much not to use them.
Paper Tole candidate for the DTGD challenge, too...

Now I can see it! It was a red x for awhile....Oh, I get it...you reloaded it...that's why my first comment is not here! Duh! Good job there Sabrina!
OMG! This is adorable! I love your beaded draggin' fly...is that what you mean when you say a beaded frog too? Hee! Me thinks Miss Piggy is in town and these two are competing over who's pad is the coolest! Hope Miss Piggy hasn't stuffed herself and is over the weight limit like a sumo wrestler or neither one of these guys is gonna entice her to their pad!
What an adorable card....they are so goofy looking! Hey, this is not a goofy challenge, wassup with putting goofy looking frogs on your lily pads??? Snort!

Oh Sabrina! This card is just adorable! Love the `pads`,the dragonfly and how you have the sentiment as a sign!
The frogs may be `goofy` looking as Cindy commented but they are so cute!
My frogs are about to land in your wonderful pad any moment !

Super cute and creative card, Sabrina! Love the background paper and the darling popped up frogs and lily pads! The beaded dragonfly is perfect! I hope there is still a spare lily pad! It looks like it is already getting crowded on the pond!

I think the dragonfly might be upstaging your frogs! To bad the dragonfly is going to be a light snack to go with our tea in any moment! Then we will see who's upstaging who!

I'm well balanced! I'm well balanced! See me wavin' over here, Sabrina? No, over HERE! I want one of those amazon lilies!!! Whoa! They ARE huge and sturdy, and jes think how many we can fit onto one pad and git all schnockered without fallin' off! I think we better put the baby froggies on there, too, to ensure their safety.
Well, I see you and I were on the same wavelength, my friend, with this stamp set, only you took it to a higher level with the awesome paper tole you did on the lilies. I am flagellatin' myself fer not thinkin' of this cool idear!
And that beaded dragonfly is far too pretty to let any of the tea partiers eat it.
