With my little guy heading off to Kindergarten this Fall, all I can think about is sending him off to big boy school with lots of love.
I thought it would be fitting to create a few little love notes to stash in his lunchbox. He enjoys receiving cards (and making cards) almost as much as I do. So, imagine his surprise when he gets a special note from from Mommy & Daddy.
Each note card is made with the Friends Rock stamp set and the Rockin' Wheel.
Playing along with the CAS challenge I made my cards clean & simple. Not too many layers and easy to recreate.
See one more shot of this trio in my card gallery.
For the challenge, we used these colors: Only Orange, Tempting Turquoise, and Yo Yo Yellow. All three of which belong to the Bold Brights Stampin' Up! family. I find that these colors are versatile enough to work for a boy or a girl.
I'm so excited to write my first note and tuck it along with his PB&J.

Oh! I remember I did this with my first-born, who is 26 now! Yours are very fancy, however and I'm sure Devlin will love this!
