Feeling Froggy?

When we were little and had a cold or sore throat we often had the raspy or really low radio announcer voice along with it. My Dad used to love asking us if we "have a frog in our throat?". This stamp reminds me of that saying so I giggle every time I see it.....just like I did every time he asked me that question. 
These frogs are much cuter then the ones I pictured in my throat as a kid! 




I chose to keep the green theme going for my card because often when we aren't feeling well we are "feeling a little green". After colouring this fun pair with alcohol markers, I hand fussy cut them and set them aside. 
Next I grabbed some blue ink, a cloud die cut and a dauber and after cutting my piece of white card stock to fit my design, I created my sky background. I cut some reeds, added them to the background and added my stamp. 
I used some matching patterned paper and a get well soon stamp on the inside of my card just for fun. Some ribbon and gumdrops finish off my card.
