Sites of the week

I have been a busy lil’ bee prepping for preschool, but I couldn’t forget to make a card for Ellie’s new teacher…Ms. Julie. She seems sweet as pie and I am so happy that Ellie is in her class this year! I actually have a few Taylored Expressions stamps that have yet to see ink {EEEK!}, so I pulled one of them out and made this card…

Detail shot of the main image panel…

The main image is from the A Year of Sweets 3. Yep, there are 3 “A Year of Sweets” sets. These are made for calendars or cards for each month of the year. They are basically broken up into quarters. The set that I chose contains September {Back To School}, October {Pumpkins/Halloween}, November {Turkey Day} and December {Christmas}. I might just have to make a full set of cards for a lil’ giftie!

I stamped the image on Neenah white cardstock {OH MY!…this stuff is WON-DER-FUL!!}. The DP on the bottom is from Creative Imaginations. I am not sure the name of the line, but there are tons of great school themed prints. I got it Michael’s a few months back. I knew I would find the perfect use for it! I actually had school bus paper, but it turned out to be much to busy for this card. I am much happier with the subdued look of the monochromatic print set off with a punch of red.

See ya tomorrow with some fun pics of my classroom and my new stampin’ space.
