Pencil and a Dream

It’s that time of year when school is drawing to a close in many locations.  And I’ve started thinking ahead to a teacher Thank You for my daughter’s teacher.  This image from My Favorite Thing is perfect. I’ve paired it with some papers from My Mind’s Eye.  If you haven’t checked out the paper selection at One Crazy Stamper you should! Lora always has a fabulous selection.  Don’t forget we have a “mother’s theme” challenge going on during May at OCS!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!

Things can only get better

I love this image from Stamping Bella, because who hasn’t felt this way before?  Sometimes you just wanna scream!  Glad Mo drew this image, perfect for that friend whose down in the dumps.

I loved the simplicity of this card and then as I was finishing it up…I managed to drip a white speck of paint right by my sentiment. I couldn’t wipe it off so I decided to add some extra white dots and dashes. Weird huh?! But other than the freaky looking white on it, I’m loving the rainbow twine and image. Oh well, I tell myself it’s got character!

Glad you could stop by and take a look!
