The special stamp set we have for you this month is:
"You Are an Angel"
"Wings"
This is the perfect set for me! If you were here yesterday, you know I have a countdown going on. If you weren't here, I work at an elementary school and school lets out in FOUR more days. The sentiment on my card could not be more true. I went clean and simple as I was staying inside my comfort zone! In the craziness that is the end of the school year, I need all the normalcy I can get!
On a less crazy, more happy note, I took my daughter to the local public library and got her signed up for the summer reading program. This year I paid for a library card as I have a real reader now. While we were at the library, I ran into some acquaintances I had not seen for a while and my daughter laid down with a book and read, oblivious to all around here. After we got home with her new books, she took them all the couch and read for an hour straight. I have a feeling this summer is going to revolve around the library which doesn't hurt my feelings at all!
Off you go to Sue's blog, but not before you comment! Have a fantastic day!

Great that you have a new reader in the house. As an ex teacher I can really empathise with how you are feeling and I just love the card!
ReplyDeleteI love how you used the words that come with the set.
ReplyDeleteVery nice CAS vacation card! And more importantly perhaps is the fact that your daughter is turning into a reader. I've been a reader all my life -- a great way to broaden your horizons!
ReplyDeleteI believe this was one of my favorite cards in the hop!

Great CAS card!
ReplyDeleteNot sure how I ended up here twice, but I'm glad I did because I love this card!
ReplyDeleteToni,
ReplyDeleteVery pretty scene and card. A few more days and you'll be free for the summer. Now I've got Alice Cooper's song going through my head. It's awesome that your daughter loves to read - it opens so many windows to the world!
What a great card-good job! I worked at a high school for over 30 years as a campus monitor and boy do I remember wishing I didn't have to be there...
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card Toni!!! It made me laugh! TFS
