So this first card I had high hopes for - was going to STITCH around the edges. I don't sew, but I bought myself one of those handheld Singer sewing machines for $16 and thought "I can do this". Well after wasting way too much of some good DP, I decided that no, I CAN'T do this. But I have to say - I love how this card turned out, totally. Isn't this paper the cutest?? You'll find me at Paper Cottage at lunch time today stocking up on more of it ;)

Miss Laura made an adorable set of teacher cards for her girls' teachers. I was completely inspired to do the same - so much so that I ordered the same DP from where she told me to. I had that folded up corner thing yesterday and decided to do the folded up thing again. I am pretty happy with this card too - and I think Mrs. Wilson will enjoy the set that I made her. I ran out of Ripe Avocado ribbon though - still have some but it's the satin one with the dots - so I'll have to finish the remaining 5 cards when I get my new order from Papertrey that I'll be placing on the 15th! I don't think I've ever been so excited about a release. Last month with the Raspberry Fizz and this month with the True Black and Black & White Basics, these next few days 'til I place my order and then the days it takes for it to get to me just cannot go by fast enough! Now I know what it was like for Dawn waiting for her SU! catty or the UPS man to bring her order!
Thanks for popping in today -
- and have a great Monday if you can!

Very cute cards, as always!
I agree, I hate Mondays too! Hope you have a good day though
This Mon. sucks in particular, but usually it doesnt' make a difference when you're not working. Love, love, love that first card.
Congrats on your weight loss!
These are both great cards, but that blue one has me totally drooling! I love the cut out window for the sentiment, and yep, that FAB paper.
Ooooo, I LOVE how the teacher's card turned out. What a neat idea to fold up the patterned paper to reveal the other side. Now, why didn't I think of that...:)
CONGRATS on your weight loss; keep it up woman!!!
