When I was a kid living outside of Buffalo, NY, we had an in-ground pool, and every summer, my dad had a "game" with a local frog. He'd go out to the pool, find the frog swimming around, scoop him out and throw him over the fence. The next day, the frog would be back, … Continue reading Hoppy Hoppy Birthday!

If … Continue reading A chapter of scenic bookmarks

I was pretty excited to get my crafty mitts on  the You're Claw-some set from Lawn Fawn when it was released. I have yet to use it as is, however. I keep mashing it up with other Lawn Fawn sets. Some more successful than others. I made this card, filling the claw machine with bananas … Continue reading Lawn Fawn: Claw-some Party Mashup
