For today's F4A234, I chose to create a card for a dear teacher friend of mine to wish her well for her new school year. This is a young woman who was a stay at home Mom for 18 years and took college courses at night after her husband came home from his job. She did not stop there. Once she became a 4th grade teacher she not only worked 2 nights a week with home bound children due to illness, she continued her own studies and now has her Masters in teaching. She is one hard working woman who has a true heart for shaping the young minds of our children today. Can you tell I am biased.
Now, getting to the image of the little girl. This is a pre-colored digi off of my newly acquired Ephemera CD from Paper Wishes. When I saw her I thought she was the perfect image for this card. I hope it puts a smile on my friend's face :-)
Thanks so much for taking a closer look. Hope you like it.
