Granny Apple Green is one of my favorite new greens in our color palette, and immediately presented itself as the perfect Frog color as I contemplated my options for So Hoppy Together. I’m no herpetologist, but I know a happy frog when I see one, and a Granny Apple Green frog is a Happy Frog!
- Stamps: So Hoppy Together (SAB), Forever Lovely, Little Elephant
- Color Palette: Whisper White, Lovely Lipstick, Granny Apple Green, Basic Black
- Accessories: Big Shot, Rectangle Stitched Framelits, Stampin’ Blends (Granny Apple Green light and dark), All My Love Ribbon Combo Pack, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Animal Expedition DSP
Does anyone besides me remember that weird cartoon about the singing frog? And the guy who finds him and thinks he’ll be famous? And the frog won’t sing for anyone else? This little frog needs a top hat and I think he could play that role. (If this makes no sense to you, ignore it. That happens to me a lot. After they give me The Look.)
The handful of hearts reminds me of a bouquet, or a balloon, or even a scatter of those little cutout things that people put on the table when they’re decorating for a party and then you find them EVERYWHERE later on. They’re not quite as bad as glitter, but they’re up there. You know what I mean.
I’m delighted with the Stitched Rectangle Framelits. The set includes nesting sizes in different aspect ratios so you have a lot of options. The framelits leave stitching on both the positive and negative sides of the die cut – Stampin’ Up! really did their homework on this one!
I folded the Lovely Lipstick ribbon from the All My Love ribbon pack and left a tail hanging. I actually stapled the top together so I wouldn’t have to try to hold it in place as I was adhering it between the DSP and the focal panel. There’s Tear ‘n Tape on both sides of the ribbon embellishment holding it in place.

Ok… now you’ve got me racking my brain trying to remember the singing frog. I’m stumped. Very cute Granny Apple Green frog, by the way!

I don’t remember a singing frog, but it might just be my memory. I didn’t think I needed this frog stamp set, because I have another frog stamp from years past, but with a cute card like this, I might have to change my mind.

Linda, I often go through the same thought process! But after all, what’s one more stamp set? And it’s FREE! lol

What is the background paper you used? I’ve looked through all three catalogs and can’t seem to find it. I also love the granny apple green. I have everything but the background paper.

Sandy, the background Desiger Series Paper is Animal Expeditions from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog. It’s in Lemon Lime Twist so if you have something else in that tone you can use it as a substitute.
