I thought I needed some help with judging this challenge so I asked my very young Granddaughter to help.
She looked at a few entries and then said “Hey these are great, could you fold me a frog out of money?”
I looked in my billfold and saw 2 singles and 2 twenties. I knew she would unfold the money and go buy candy so I took out the 2 singles and folded this:
“Oh, Grandpa,” she said, “that Frog is not finished!”
I said with a grin, “Well you know it is not that easy being green.”
“Oh Grandpa”, she said, “That is really bad.”
My grin got bigger and I said, “But making the rest of the Frog, will cost me an ‘ARM and a LEG’.”
“You are just being silly”, she said.
“Yes dear”, I said, “But even if I finished the rest of the Frog, it would still be ‘Income-Pleated’.”
The theme for next month’s challenge will be Humor. Fold the punch line to a really bad pun; make your favorite funny cartoon character or just make a combination fold that is just plain silly. If you need inspiration look at Jeremy Schafer’s First Book or the recent masks of Joseph Wu (make sure to read the descriptions and a few of the comments).
I will announce the winners for this challenge (March) after I wake up on April 1st. to see if you have all survived “April Fool’s Day.
