Froggie Hello - C4C #36

Mornin'!!! It's Crazy 4 Challenges day and today Frances is challenging us to do a card based on a nursery rhyme:

What are little boys made of?
Frogs and snails
And puppy-dogs' tails,
That's what little boys are made of.

She's using this because she is expecting a grandson (her first grandchild) this month and is over the moon excited! So the challenge is to use this part of that well known children's nursery rhyme to create your card...it can be a boy card, something with frogs and/or snails, puppy dogs - whatever your little heart desires :)

I really wanted to do a frog card because I have this paper that I've never used. This is the only frog image I have, but it works :)

I stamped my images on a Perfect Paper Panel with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and colored them with Copic markers. I think the layout is pretty simple so I won't go into all that.

NOW, be sure to check out the samples by the rest of my crazy girls...er, I mean the Crazy 4 Challenges team ;-)
THEN, you know what to do--we'd love to have you come along and play with us. Just do your thing with the challenge and link it to Mr. Linky on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog. Please link directly to your project. And, if you upload to a public gallery, please use the key word C4C36.

Thanks so much for dropping in today! Can't wait to see what you do with this week's challenge!
