"Thank You For The Seeds Of Knowledge"

Good Afternoon Everyone! Hee-Hee, I'm back! I promise this is the last post for today! LOL!

This creation was for The Latte Lounges Digi Day last night! The awesome image is by The Stamping Boutique called "Back To School Chalkboard Journal" and the sentiment on the chalkboard is by In A Scrap Creation called "ABC_123_Wordart" along with the beautiful sentiment on the inside called "Teacher_Plants_Seeds". The challenge is called "ABC Challenge (Teacher Gifts)". So if you take look farther down you will see that I made this card into a gift card holder! How cool is that? I thought it was a cool idea, if I say so myself! LOL! This challenge will run until Wednesday, April 20, 2011 at 11:59pm EST. So come on over and get your teacher appreciation gifts entered!
