School Days

Hi everyone.  So summer is about over and school is beginning in 7 days.  I can't believe my little guy is heading into first grade!  I am sad that summer is over, but it will be nice to be back on a routine again. 

We have a busy week of buying school supplies and uniforms ahead of us.  Monday, we are going to a meet and greet with the new teacher and drop off the school supplies. Max wanted something nice to bring to his new teacher and I wanted something cute to deliver a teacher survey in.  This year I decided I didn't want to have to guess on what the new teacher likes throughout the year so I'm sending this little survey for her to fill out.  There are a lot of different versions out there, but the one I found on Domestically Speaking I think is the best.  I'm going to print it out on some cute paper and insert into a cute card!

Cuts and cartridges:

grass           Ribbons & Rosettes         1/2"

road            My Community                1"

fence           My Community                3/4"

bus              Beep Beep                      1 3/4"

kids             Autumn Celebrations       1 1/4"

school          My Community               2 1/2"

clouds          CCR Basics                    3/4" and 1/2"

                    This & That                    1/2"

I used a paper from the DCWV Grade School mat stack for the inside.  I decided to leave it blank and I'm going to let Max write his own message in there.

I hope you all have a wonderful day!!!

Airplane - a baby boy card

Hello Friends!  I'm still working through my challenge of using my Cricut cartridges I don't use often.  Today's uses the Cricut Lite cartridge Beep Beep.  I originally bought this one to work on projects for my son's room and actually used this one quite a bit in the beginning, but lately it's been sitting.  The inspiration for this card came from a baby bedding set I had seen online...I didn't save where I found it, but it was probably Pinterest considering how much time I spend on there!

The size of this card is 9 x 4 and fits into a business size envelope.  I used the airplane from the Beep Beep Cricut Lite and the clouds are from Create a Critter and I just hid the faces and cut them at different sizes.

The stamp I used is from a Stampin Up set I got years ago called Fabulous Four

I only wanted the sentiment 'For Baby' so I used my markers and inked just the sentiment and stamped it onto the cloud.

I left the inside blank for now, but I recently purchased some new baby stamps and may go back and add something to the inside.

I hope you enjoy today's card!  June Specials are available for a couple more weeks!  There are some really great ones out there, check out my post on that here. I'm waiting for my order to come in!  Also, my drawing  is open to my CTMH customers until June 29th!  Great way to get some extra free stuff!!  Check the details of that out here!  I hope you all have a fabulous day!
