Back To School

The term "Back-To-School" doesn't mean to me quite what it used to.  Years ago, it meant backpacks, uniforms, and sending my precious babies off to their first day of school at our church/school.  At this point in my life, it still means school will be starting soon; but for us it starts at home now.  I only have one "baby" left at home, and he is in the 11th grade this year.  We homeschool, and that starts next week.  I will absolutely CHERISH these last two years with him - being his Mom and his teacher.  Precious!  The time we spend together will pass by much too quickly, so I truly cherish it.

I had a friend (someone who still has those precious little ones who attend our church/school), and she asked me to create some back-to-school cards for her kids' teachers.  I was happy to make them for her, and I thought that I would share one here on my blog.

I created this card with red Bazzill cardstock, some very old Cosmo Cricket patterned paper, some crayons, baker's twine, a grungy prim tag, an apple sticker, and a snippet of Tim Holtz ruler ribbon.  I'm sharing my card in these challenges:

Thanks for visiting, and I wish you all a very safe and happy Back-To-School.
