There are so many beautiful cards in the gallery with lovely woods and cute woodland animals! I guess I just wanted to keep things light. I have been tending to hubby (he has been dealing with two VERY painful kidney stones) and have not got to spend a lot of time on here at all!
Anyway, Most of the scene was made with my Cricut, using the Outdoor Man cartridge. I did a little sponging along some of the edges and stamped that cute little froggy and fussy cut him out. Hopefully this will bring a little smile and not offend

Oh, I think this is very funny! And I love the grid paper for the trees.
Reminds me of when I was in France in my teens. I bet the frog will feast well if he stays hanging out around your outhouse!
I hope your DH gets better soon!!

Kathleen, your card has me laughing out loud. How could anyone be offended by such a darling card. I love the scene you created with your bold, bright blues and greens. I hope DH feels better soon.

Nothing says "house by the lake" completely, without an 'outhouse'!! What a riot this is, with flies and the froggie! You made great use of your cricut cartridge with all these elements of the outdoors! Love the patterned papers - that is a great idea!!! (taking notes) I never think to use anything other than regular CS - YOU are BRILLIANT!!
Hope hubby feels better soon - sending some prayers for him - and YOU!

Oh my goodness this is adorable and sure brought a smile to me when I saw it. I love your little frog in the scene just popping out to say hello. Someone is going to get a dandy card for sure. Super job with the sponging you added too. It give a great added alyer to this card.
