Yay, I have managed to make it to Mothermark's Tea Party Tuesday (ignore the fact that it is Friday there! LOL) Along the way I called into the Penny Black Saturday Challenge: http://pennybfriendssaturdaychallenge.blogspot.com/
(oops late too - sigh!) where we had to use 3 ribbons, 2 flowers and one charm....I was thrilled to receive, amongst many others, this image of a frog, and the darling charm, from Pauline in the BLOG CANDY that I won....it is perfect for Mothermark's Tea Party which is all about frogs this week - you can check it out here: http://mothermark.blogspot.com/
But really Dar-r-r-lings - I see that there have been some rulz set up for this one - RULZ!?!? What are they, I heard (on the quiet,) they are made to be broken!! LOL! I will do my best to abide by them...but you may have to 'turn a blind eye every now and then - especially when I have noticed that most of my 'Twisted Sisters' have been coming along - T-R-O-U-B-L-E is ever there was! LOL!
Dar-r-r-lings I was mortified, I repeat mortified, to hear about sumos, lifeguards and being 'schnockered'....and one Tea Potter to a lily Pad - I have brought a Lily Pad that will fit HEAPS of people on...dar-r-r-lings if we are going to 'Party' then let's do it in style -'Hop on Over to My Pad'....there is room for you. I have even brought along some munchies...yes those ant brads are edible...delicious for a frog! Bearing in mind that this event takes place in a pond I chalked this frog and then touched him up with Water Colour pens...that way he would stay respectable for the whole event (this is our equivalent of Waterproof mascara!)
Did I hear Cindy mention paramedics - owwww....just quietly dar-r-r-lings...I don't mind a 'man in uniform'...I may have to give someone a bit of 'gentle persuasion' into the pond before the night is out....look out gals...coz I is ready to party!!! On a personal note, I am delighted that we have left France...otherwise all of the frogs could be legless - skeery thought!!
Well enough chatter from me...I am off to mingle and hopefully I will catch up with you there...
Thank you for looking and for your emcouraging comments - there is more of me on my Blog: http://lovelylindascraftcentral.blogspot.com/

Linda, HUH! ok so I have been missing in action lately and have to admit I am clueless. But, what I do know is that I love this frog card! The image totally rocks and I love all the ribbons! Terrific coloring as usual. Your piercing is great and that charm is da bomb! Most excellent. Love it! TFS

Hey guys! Linda is here! Hide the parametics in uniforms! She is trying to lure them to her big old lily pad and take from us! She even sent her frog a jumping after a big ole flower just so she could make room for one more parametic! She claims she is well, sophisticated, but I am not falling for her line about edible insects, she just wants to skeer us off so she can have the parametics! She knows big buff parametics in uniforms aren't afraid of measly little insects!! Snort!
Linda...I love, love, love your card! I love all of the stacked embellishments! Holy cow girl, you get a prize for the most embellishments on one card! Its is precious and so happy and I love, love, love the colors! So glad you could come and bring a touch of elegance and sophistication....however, Back Off my Parametic!!!
