Escape from the pond?!

Yes that's right, I'm *leaving* *the* *pond*! On two seperate occasions in a row too! Unfortunately on each occasion all the pondy inhabitants are coming too, except our resident snake of course... Oh well, can't have everything...



Tomorrow I'm having the second scan of my little tadpole, this will be the scan that'll tell us whether it's a blue or pink tadpole (how exciting!) so once I get home the naming can commence! Although, I'm thinking Jibbet; it's unisex and goes well with Ribbet and Flibbet... Anyway, if you'd like to play a wee game with me, to celebrate the special frogcasion, the first person to convo me on Etsy with the correct colour of tadpole (ie, blue tadpole! Or pink tadpole!) will get 50% off the toiletry of their choice from my shop - just put in the convo which one you'd like half price and I'll make a special listing later! You have until tomorrow afternoon... Oh, to get to my shop, just click on the thumbnails of my products over there --->



On Saturday the froglets, Mr Frog and the Frog In Laws (oh and me and tadpole) are going camping, yes, camping with the Frog In Laws, dear god... how did this come about?! Well, firstly, Mr Frog and I don't have a car (what? We're frogs, what do you expect) and to go camping with froglets you definitely need a car, or even two... we're going (thanks to Mrs Frog In Law) to a campsite halfway between Preston and Blackpool; sounds fabulous doesn't it.... there's a beach though and of course Blackpool to explore... so it could be quite fun with the little ones. I bet there won't be any chance of our froggy legs drying out either (hehe!) ahhh I think I've given up on all hopes of actually relaxing at any point during the week though!



When I get back I'll be sinking happily back into my little pond and making things, I'm still stuck on a mammoth custom order for my friend Nickie - I'm making a beadwoven necklace to match this bracelet, it's taking me forever and I'm barely charging her anything, typical eh!

Ahh I've been feeling slightly artistic this week, and I may even attempt to make some sellable prints and cards (if that's possible for me lol)... mainly I've been avoiding listening to Ribbet and Flibbet frog-wrestle and pond-destroy whilst perusing http://www.etsy.com/ 's art department, I've been looking at portraits in the last few days and hopefully somewhere on this page I should have added them for you to look at too!

Well, I'm getting pretty fed up of being frog-kicked in the back by Flibbet while she screams 'MY CHAIR!' so I think I'll hop off for now, don't forget the 50% off game, I'll let you know who wins (if anyone!) tomorrow!
