This card is not for a boy...but for a boy to give. I made this for my son, Nathan, to give to his 5th grade teacher. No flowers and hearts will do....she collects frogs. She hides them (not live ones, of course!) all over the room for the students to find. She uses the word FROG as an acronym to teach the children to Fully Rely On God. She's been an incredible teacher, and I hope she likes this card.
I think I was channeling Faith (markie's mom) this afternoon while making this card. I was trying to find just the right place for the frog to sit, and it kept 'hopping' all over the page. It seemed to move when I didn't want it to. I'm sure Faith would have named it and come up with a great story, too.
Like someone else posted today, I sure hate to see these last In Colors go away...sniff! TFL!!
