After embossing 110 panels for my niece's wedding thank you notes, I needed something simple!!
Tomorrow is my Granddaughter's first day of school. She will be in 1st grade. I used this cute little cuttlebug die for a simple 3x3 card. I used scraps behind the cutouts & used a gel pen to write of the book bindings. The balloons are an old SU set that I don't remember the name. I used various SU markers for the balloons. In side says "Have fun in first grade"
Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

Oh Karen!! That is really cute!! What a fun day for your grandaughter and a wonderful card for her!!! Clever idea on your part - I'm sure your grandaughter will do really well in school!
What a clever way to use that die cut. (I think I actually have it somewhere in my stash.) Need to try using it like you did. The first day of school is so exciting....I hope your granddaughter enjoyed her day and her card.
