For the Teapot challenge, we are to make a card showing what makes us happy.
I love to curl up in a chair to read.
I LOVE the color RED.
In this house, we are very partial to frogs -
#1 son had an invisible frog in his pocket when he was two.
#2 son told us he had seen "double decker frogs" at the pond when he was four.
(Can you understand how we feel about frogs?)

My grandson, age 16 today, is having a love of frogs lately, recurring from when he was about 4 or 5! It cracks me up. One of his friends gave him a hat with stand-up frog eyes last weekend at his birthday gathering : ) So, I totally get the love of frogs in your family. This frog in a soft, comfy chair is just SO fun. I love the plaid and your tall layout, as well. Personally, I can skip the frogs and just curl up in a chair with a good book : )

Where in this blurr did I just see the words fish tacos? and ended up here to comment that I have never had fish tacos but I went by a stand selling them last week and I was sooo tempted... LOL.. Love your frog card.. I also love reading and red! thanks for posting!
"Double decker frogs" had me laughing out loud! I love the layout of this slimline card (I'm just starting with this kind of card, and arranging elements drives me crazy at times!), and how you framed the frog!

I had my frog period a while ago, I collected all kind of frogs, and in Holland we say opkikker for uplifting and kikker means frog, so that's why we can find lots of kikker=frog stuff in Holland, your card is so funny and I imagine you curled up with your book in the sofa, a red book or a red sofa, wearing a red dress...loved to read about your son' experience lol

Love, love your reading frog. Did I ever tell you about our friend who has a frog collection, they live in Croak Park - Croke Park is one of the main national sports stadiums ;-). I like your slimline layout with the plaid and green. I also like your idea of a teenage hacker too - I cannot say that at 6.30 am I was anything other than frustrated to find yet more site issues.

This card made me smile! Who can’t love a frog curled up with a good book in his (hands)? Love the frames and plaid background papers as well. Very cute card!
