A Spring Salute to Stationery Frogs

We are having the most wonderful stretch of spring weather here in Vermont, and last night, as I was driving home with the window down after a glorious victory in the finals of the dart league (it's all good today!) I could hear the peepers for the first time. Yay Spring! The tiller gets fired up later today.

So, in honor of the arrival of Peepers, I'll put together a collection of stationery frogs for you:


The Brushstroke Animals Leaping Frog



The Paper Collage Frog Printable Cards

And then there's my favorite frog from the Crane Insider Archive: The Cocktail Frog. These imprintable cards measure about 9 inches by 4 inches, so they're perfect for a dinner wine list, menu card, invitation or just as a shopping list for your trip to the liquor store.



If you would like to own this fabulous frog collection, just leave a comment below.

And, the winner of last Freebie Friday's collection of Louie Award finalist stationery is: Brooklynchuck. Chuck, please send me your mailing address at peter dot hopkins at comcast dot net.

Good luck everyone!

    I almost bought the 'brushstroke leaping frog' but got the 'brushstroke lobster' instead. :)

    These frogs are all just so adorable.
    In reference to your last post, I snail mailed two of my friends last week. Too bad they never write me back!
    Love your posts. Will continue to follow your blog~!

    These are darling, just in time for spring! Makes me want to create a signature cocktail to accompany the drinky frog: I will call it a Lily Pad: Midori, Limoncello, Triple sec, Vodka, A nasturtium petal floating on top. Cheers.

    I see this collection and it brings to mind Mark Twain's "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County."

    I'll have to ask my toddler tonight if he knows what a frog says. "Ribbit" might be a challenge for him.

    I love it. Whimsical, classy, and unique. You've just converted another reader, sir.

    Just found your blog through Diamonds In The Morning. Love it. I have serious pulp fascination and of cocktails. I would love to know where to purchase the Crane frogs even if I did not win. Thanks for the chance.
