Monkey See Monkey Do

I'm happy to report that I've made four cards in the past two days....doesn't sound like much, but I've been on a dry spell lately. I was even happier that I was able to create two cards after school tonight....just a few more blogs to visit then I'll be caught up & ready for bed!

I'm made this card last night quickly when I realized one of my students' birthdays was today....why didn't I just make all the cards this summer when I had this brilliant idea????? I finished it up first thing this morning and guess who wasn't in school today! That's okay....gave me a chance to bring it home for a photo opp!

It's a fun birthday card, so I'm hoping the 4th grade boy that I made it for likes it. I realized that I need more boy stamps when thinking about what to make. I wanted to make something with Legos or Star Wars (which would have been right up his alley), but those things do not exist in my craft room.

Keep your fingers crossed that the craft mojo sticks with me...I want to make scratch off St. Patty's cards for 14 youngsters - again why didn't I get this done when the idea hit me?????
