Thank U for Teacher


Another teacher card for this year!  I cased this card over at over at SugarPea Designs by Wendy.  Of course, I used a project life card for the paper, and sticker tiles for the card.  I really loved how it turned out!  I stuck with her original paper colors, because they are so perfect!  I used different designer paper, and decided that I did not want to use any ribbon.  Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Mother's Day from the Little Monkey!




This card was made for one of my co-workers.  Her mother use to refer to her children as the 6 little monkeys.  I thought she would enjoy giving this card to her mother for Mother's Day!  It is unusual, yet really sweet!  Thanks for swinging by!!!

A+ Teacher






It is that time of the year to Thank the teachers who have touched children's lives.  I made a couple of cards which I will be featuring for a co-worker to give to her children's teachers.  This card mimics a chalkboard.  I made sure the chalkboard was dusty and added a bit of faux stitching to make it pop!  Thanks for stopping by!

Removable Bookmark






I made this card with a removable bookmark.  The bookmark is the embellishment on the card.  I thought a removable bookmark paired well with the image!  The image is from The East Wing etsy store.  She is marvelous, and I cannot imagine having all of that hair!  However, I love it!  This will be a great card to send to a friend who loves to read!  Not only do they receive a card, but a bookmark too!

I am dedicating this card to Linda Palmer, my blog friend, who has suddenly passed away!  She always left me such encouraging comments about my cards, and I loved looking at her blog every week.  She could color marvelously!   I am going to miss her because she always provided inspiration for me!  It is a great reminder to not take life for granted.  Cherish everyone around you!
