I finally made it to one of MM's tea parties. When I saw the teapot it reminded me of the Singing Frog cartoon. Now I am going to be singing that hello ma baby, hello ma honey, hello my ragtime girl..... all day long. At least I will be schnokered when I am singing. Hope I don't fall off the lily pad.

Awesome card, Cathleen! Fantastic frog image and lyrics! Your coloring is amazing! You've brought the music - maybe there will be dancing on the lily pads after tea!

ROTLMBO!!! I LOVE that song and your singing trio, Cathleen! What a riot and so cute!
BTW, if you are a fan club member, this would qualify for debdeb's 'moved by the music' challenge in the Dare to Get Dirty challenges, as well as some of the other challenges posted in that forum.

Hey guys! Cathleen is here! Whoo Hoo...she's been wanting to come and finally made it.....
Girl, by the looks of these frogs, they were schnockered before you colored them! Giggle! Which by the way, you did a wonderful job doing! What an awesome job you did with this image, I love the color you put to it!
Carla wants dancin' on the lily pads? Okay, so tell me, what'll you charge us for about 24 hours (or maybe 7 days) of music? Now before you answer that, remember, we all just got back from the Tour de France so we are broke! You sing for tea? Whoo Hoo! Let the dancing begin! Hee! Bring more tea girls!!!

I've always liked that stamp - never knew who made it before. One of my best friends collects frogs, so I always notice froggy cards. Your colouring is amazing, and the cuttlebugged background is totally suitable and totally coordinated. Just hope none of the frogs spot the ladybird or it might be just the tasty snack they need to refresh them as they sing.
I'll have to check out your singing frog - or is that a bad idea? Would I have it stuck in my head all day too?

Cathleen, I am so glad you made it to the teaparty with these adorable little frogs. I can imagine it was hard keeping them contained until you got to the lilly pond. I love the way you have them colored. The rhinestones at the side are wonderful too. I know what song they are really singing. It is KISS ME BABY, I'M A PRINCE. KISS ME AND THERE WILL BE MORE DIAMONDS LIKE THESE ONES AT THE SIDE...

I love this! The bugged bkg is perfect for this image...the different hues of green and yellow are wonderful.
I love that singing frog cartoon...my brothers and I used to watch it all the time! (We were big Tom and Jerry, Bugs Bunny, Roadrunner, and Three Stooges fans.) DRS has a frog that I am planning to order that reminds me of him too! Thanks for the link to the song...great memories! So glad you played!

Tee-hee, this card made me giggle as soon as I opened it! Love the added bling and the embossing-the perfect touches to highlight that great stamp & coloring!
