I loved this sketch the first time I used it so decided to use it again. I made the card for one of my daughter's teachers this year. She is an amazing lady and I have so enjoyed getting to know her and watch her interact with the class. She eats lunch with any student that wants to join her, she actually got in the pool to swim and play with them at their year end pool party, she is loads of fun, totally approachable and is a teacher that has had a great impact on my daughter this year. So to all you teachers out there, thank you for investing in our kids (((hugs)))!!
The embossed image on the navy panel came from an embossing folder my dear blogging friend Kathy (aka Wattle on SCS) gave me. It's not even available in Canada, so I have an exclusive, Australian embossing folder :D Thank you again, Kathy, I LOVE it!! I also dug into my stash of Michael's wedding flowers which I have had forever and need to get using again. A few pops of pink and voila, one challenge down.
It's going to be a busy week with all the Verve challenges I need to get done by Friday, so there will be lots of posting LOL! Thanks for visiting, and see you soon :)

Stamps: Verve
Paper: Night of Navy, Brocade Blue
Accessories: Nat Embossing Folder, Oval and Scalloped Oval Nesties, Scor-Pal, 5/8" Pink Satin Ribbon, Pink Half Pearls, Flowers from Michael's Wedding Department, Dimensionals
