I DIDN'T FROGET

Hi Everyone

Wozers .. .. how much rain ?!?!?

We have had a mini river flowing down our road today and the rain was coming so heavy that it looked like fog!!  Plus we have had thunder and  lightening to boot!!

Why does it always happen just as the kids are coming out of school.  All those poor Mums with soaking wet school uniforms to contend with .. .. I mean it isn't as if the kids try to shelter .. .. or even keep out of the puddles LOL!! 

No chance of hubby cutting the lawns tonight!!  He was hoping he could get them done ahead of the weekend.

Anyway, what better on a dull and miserable day than a card to make your eyes pop!!! 






This used:

Image:  Penny Black "3702J" Jump for Joy!
Sentiment:  Computer Generated
Backing Papers:  Part of a huge papermania stack (I hope you are impressed Lynne)
Woodware Punches:  Daisy
Ribbon from a special blog buddy (thank you Carole xx)
Promarkers
Diamond Stickles

I hope the brightness didn't hurt your eyes too much!!

I have a bit of blog catching up to do this evening so am looking forward to that and then tomorrow I am here bright and early as it is my turn to post for the Get Funky! challenge.

Catch you again tomorrow.

Have a good weekend everyone

Love

    Hi Jules, love that frog! Lovely papers & a very pretty green ribbon. I like the way you've layered the daisies, looks good & I smiled at the sentiment. Ah, rain & more rain, us too.

    Oh yes, I am impressed Jules. I haven`t got that paper pack but I`m sure if I`d seen it I would have bought it. Fabulous colours, really love those vibrant pinks and greens together. Fabby frog, looks like the one I nearly squashed lol.I hope the rain clears for the week end for you.
