Freddy the frog has escaped! What to do???? Call Curt, of course. He is a professional frog finder/catcher. Let me explainÂ….
While leaning pools with me this summer, Curt has learned the art of frog catching. I have one particular pool that for that last several months each week we find and catch the same frog. I am sure it is the same frog because he “winks” at me each week. hehe
Curt knows that if a frog feels he is about to be captured, he will swim to the bottom of the pool. With this knowledge in mind, Curt is using it at the pond where Freddy is thought to be hiding.
Since the water isn’t as clear as a pool, he had to actually go “IN” the water, snorkel and all. Low and behold there sat ole Freddy.
He was an easy catch. Seem he wasn't trying to run away after all, but rather he was trying to find his little friend, Ricky, and got lost. Problem solved.
Card infoÂ…..hand drawn scene colored with copics. The fish were made using a fish stencil andÂ…wait for itÂ….joint compound from the hardware store. Added some drywall tape for an embellishment. Layered my scene on black cs, then on a black card with a gelli print. Done.....not sure where that dang fly came from. hehe
Well itÂ’s off to the grocery store. Have a great Teapot Tuesday Ladies! See you soon. TFL :0)

Cute, fun and totally adorable, Cathy. I love Curt in his snorkel - and boots.
My aunt has a tiny little pond in her garden which has several frogs in it. When we dog-sit, I quite often see one of her dogs sitting there waiting for a frog - and indeed, she has caught one more than once. But she doesn't kill them, she just brings them into the house and drops them. She and Curt could set up together .

Hey, sis, I am coming to California to kiss that frog.....I need a prince!! Another amazing card from you. Curt is just the best family member. He brings smiles and great adventures for sure. This looks like one squeaky clean pool with the exception of the rocks or Curt droppings on the bottom!! I love to see the scene where Curt is lifted out of the pool...
Love your cards, sis.
