This is for the Ways to use It Challenge to recognize Leap Year with anything that hops, skips, leaps or jumps. I was so glad to see this challenge! I had plans to make this card, but I kept skipping over it. The challenge inspired me to get a jump on it!
This will go in a package to a friend (who is dealing with cancer) for Leap Year Day. I thought a leaping frog was a good representative. It will be mailed along with the frog themed Walmart gift card seen in the picture. I was inspired by the caterpillar on the gift card to use the deco tape. Linking my card to last week’s WT challenge to Tape It Up. I used blender pens to apply a little color to the dots in the sentiment. It was fast and easy – why didn’t I do it sooner? It’s done now and I’m jumping for joy! Thanks for hopping over to see my card.

Like everything about it. The exuberant frog, the polka dot tape and the coordinating gift card, but most of all that you have just the right person to receive it.

What a super happy card for your friend. So love the added tape tying this to last weeks challenge too. Awesome that you found a gift card with the frog too. Way to tie it all in together.

I happen to love frogs (real ones) and I love your "hoppy" little frog image! He looks so excited to share his joy! Sweet card, and a cheerful ensemble for your friend.
