One of my favorite blogs (I follow ~175 craft blogs) is Jackie Pedro's The Scalloped Edge. My card today was inspired by this card that Jackie made. I don't own any of those cute October Afternoon papers, so I went to my LSS to buy some about 2 weeks ago. I came home with this sweet girl holding the apple (MFT Pure Innocence "Apple For You" stamp set). She has been on my stamp table as a reminder that I need to start getting ready for end-of-year teacher gifts.It dawned on me this morning that my Cosmo Cricket the Boyfriend papers might work for my card. Three hours later, I now have 3 cards like this for the 3 core teachers :)

I just LOVE this, June - you are so neat (a girl after my own heart!!) - love the perfectly placed squares. Those papers and that image are just right for a teacher's card.

what a ♥GREAT♥ (& utterly adroable!) teacher card...AND a wonderful version of the inspiration card...AND the perfect example of how to make something you already *HAVE* work perfectly!!!!!!!!!! if anything, those cosmo papers work EVEN BETTER for the school theme!!! ♥♥♥
(ps: isn't there a rule about having to use a photo of daniel craig with those, though??!?! i'm assuming he's *INSIDE* the card!) :) :) :)
