Back to School

Good Morning!  Can you believe Summer is almost over?  Here in Massachusetts the kids go back to school in about a couple of weeks.   Personally, I am looking forward to Fall.  It has been a hot summer and I would like a little cool, crisp air.

Since the kids are going Back to School we thought this would be a perfect theme this week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations.  I had bought this Lilly of the Valley stamp earlier but had not had a chance to use it.  I thought this would be a cute and different back to School card for someone going into Nursery School or Kindergarten.
I this this bear is adorable.

This is a great time to make a card and give it to your kids as they head back to school so pull out your stamps and join the fun!

Happy Birthday Nicole

Happy Wednesday!  My Nieces Birthday was a couple weeks ago and this is the card I made her.  I can't believe she is 30 years old.  I feel ancient!!  I have been so busy lately I haven't had a chance to post it.  She loves Pink, lace, and pearls so they all had to be incorporated into the card, not that it was hard to do.   When I bought this paper from Bearly Mine Nicole was the first person I thought of so I knew this was the paper I would be using on her card.  I didn't know what do do with the horse so I glittered it.  I thought it came out nice.
