A to Z with a little J

For Valentines Day this year a few of the girls at work decided to have a Valentine exchange just like we used to in school.  For my valentine box I grabbed an empty Huggies wipe container, some green and red card stock, a pair of googly eyes and some clear tape.  About an hour later I had a completed frog even though I set out with the plan of making an alligator.  The frog's mouth opens to put the valentines in or you can open the lid for larger items.  Of course Jameson has taken it from me already and keeps feeding the frog random items.
