Oh that cursive alphabet looks just like what I was taught in elementary school. I got good at it then; now I write like a doctor LOL! I LOVE the card and the alphabet really makes it striking along with the hound's-tooth panel and cute little apple!

What a special card this is, and will be so touching for the teacher who receives it! I love that great sentiment and being a teacher it would probably make me cry! I am so flattered that you were inspired by one of my cards, and how sweet of you to PM me your sweet note. I love SCS for that very reason of having a source of inspiration from the thousands of artists who so lovingly share their work.

Fabulous. What a great card from wonderful inspiration. I admire your New Year's resolution. Inspired by your action on that. It makes me want to do the same. Love your design. The sentiment is awesome. Into my favs. It will remind me to be intentional with my favorites, too. Nicely done. TFS

Oh, Tranna, this is a fabulous card, and I too love the cursive on the "blackboard." It's sad they are no longer teaching it in many schools! How beautifully done, and what a wonderful CASE of Liz's cards! Great idea to CASE the favorites you have. Hugs!

OMGosh! The cursive penmanship sample paper! How many classrooms had this along the top of the chalkboard (now whiteboards)?!! I owned one myself for my first classroom! Needless to say ... this is a fabulous card for a teacher!!

I have a couple of nieces who are teacher now and a retiree in the family too. This card would be appreciated by any teacher I think. Love the sentiment! You've found the perfect paper in that cursive sample. From the comments above it obviously has meaning for many of us or a certain age! :-)

This is a captivating CAS design. Totally love the blackboard you created with the fancy frame in frame die cut, and putting the penmanship dp in the frame is so cool. Your sentiment is perfect for this and that tiny Apple is the the perfect finishing touch. Very cool teacher appreciation card! Tucking this into my favs...TFS!
