Do Frogs Ride Bikes?

I once had a relationship with a frog. He would serenade me with wonderful melodies and he always made me smile. I know they say that frogs give you warts, but not this frog.  I never kissed him, but would have if given the opportunity, and I wouldn’t have cared if he didn’t turn into a prince. Because in my eyes, he already was royalty.  

The minute I happened upon this stamp I knew I had to buy it. There is something so whimsical about a frog riding a bicycle. My friendly frog can ride a bike and that is no anthropomorphism. For my friend is an extraordinary frog. He has been Grand Marshal of the Tournament of Roses Parade, received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and was awarded an honorary doctorate of Amphibious Letters from Southampton College in New York. Ride a bicycle? Piece of cake! 

Wanna take a guess as to who my friend is?

I loved making this card! Froggie on a Bike stamp is from Pictureshow on Etsy
and the bicycle paper is from Graphic 45 Olde Curiosity Shoppe.

I like using escape, rather than Bon Voyage. 

I have now made 2 cards that I am proud of and can officially add card making
to my addiction list. I do NOT own any copics and wonder if that is next. Ya think?

    Is your frog Kermit? Love the Muppets so I hope so. I'm sure Copics will be next on your 'must have' list. Love the card. That stamp is adorable!

    Kory - got it on Etsy and the shop owner is Pictureshow BUT if you want a few images on white cardstock just yell and I'll send them off. This offer is avilable for a limited time to any of my followers. "Ellen excels at sharing." That is what the teachers always wrote on my report card!!
    PDRNC - Yep! It's Kermit and the Rainbow Connection is one of my favorite songs :-)

    Great card! I love Kermie, too. My boys even took me to see the new Muppet movie for my birthday last November! I haven't given in to the copic craze yet. I've never even used one. Afraid I'd fall in love and have to have some.

    Wonderful card! I have no idea who your friend riding the bicycle is though.
