HOPPY CHRISTMAS!!

Good Afternoon! All went well yesterday. MIL picked a nice shade of blue for her bedroom and they are coming today to take measurements..  It didn't take long at all..So we then went for a bite to eat. Took her home and she said next week we should go and look at beds!!



Now this little cutie lives with my Birdbrains over at  Fromtheheartstampscom and he's called Hoppy Christmas Coloured with Copics...LOts of glitter on his hat/bulrushes.    Liquid pearls scattered on the bulrushes and rocks.  Papers from stash.. Yes! I know there's more green little critters than brown, but, I'm trying to follow the sketch again this week...So he's got to be brown lol  Turquoise rocks too!
I know it's an unusual colour, but, have you every seen a real toad with a hat on!! especially at Christmas. Spellbinder  All Occasion and Crafts Too dies used..
