My twin girls started middle school and the adjustment has been more difficult for both of them than I imagined. Each day has gotten better. I am so grateful to the teachers for communicating with us daily (sometimes twice daily!)
I created this card for my daughters to give to their case manager. He is working so hard to ensure that the girls' needs are met and that they each have a pleasant middle school experience. All of this makes me miss teaching all the more (I taught for middle and high school math ~15 years before my twins were born.) Teachers rock.
I started with my MME "School Daze" 6x6 but then thought it might be fun to mix with my Glitz Design "Yours Truly" 6x6. What do you think? I pushed different papers around, layering the way I wanted. Then I went in search of a sketch. I think this one is a keeper:
I am also entering this at Pumpkin Spice: Primary Colors challenge.
Supplies:
paper: Glitz Design "Yours Truly" 6x6; My Mind's Eye "School Daze" 6x6
black gems: Imaginisce i-rock hot rocks
scalloped border: Stampin' Up! slot punchHappy Sunday!

I love all the warm you achieved with the papers, June. The eclectic feel reminds me of my classroom. Love this. Thanks for joining us at Seize the Sketch!
What a lovely card for a very special person, and I know the recipient will appreciate your thoughtfulness. Your girls must be very special little ladies as they were given to parents who are just as special.
