I had my card all made and photographed when I got a call from the school.....my son had forgotten his Math notebook and could I bring it in. I left my card and ran into the school. As I was driving I must admit that I was alittle perturbed....that was short lived when I got a great compliment.....when my son came into the office to pick up his notebook, he said, "mom I am so sorry you had to run all the way in for this but I really needed it--so sorry!" The secratary picked her head up quickly and said, "Oh my, that is the first time I think I have ever heard a kid thank their parent for running a book in". May not seem like a lot but I must admit it has mad my morning!!
On with my card (sorry I just had to share) I decided to combine today's color challenge (black, kraft, Mambo Melon) with the Mojo Monday sketch challenge. I love how it turned out!!

Your card did turn out lovely. I like the silhouette on the circular part. It's nice that you could enjoy a compliment about your son this morning too.
