Thought for the day -

"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved." Helen Keller

Happy Monday! Only one day to go until our big day. I really wish I had scheduled tomorrow off so I could watch all the festivities from Washington. I've never been all that much into politics but I do think this is an exciting time. I will be setting the recorder!

I made this little thank you card for one of Jordan's teachers. Jordan is my youngest & is in kindergarten and the after school program. Mrs. Ogg teaches one of the after school classes-Music Theatre and he just loves her. Tomorrow is the last day for the class and they will be performing songs from Peter Pan. Jordan will be one of the "Lost Boys" singing I Don't Want To Grow Up. Too cute. He's been practicing for weeks...over and over and over LOL. So "we" made this card to go with her gift.
This is also for the sketch saturday challenge- Sketch #34. This is a great sketch.





















All dp is School Days by Daisy D's, except for the lined note paper, which is by Creative Designs. The thank you stamp is from Stampin Up and the teacher quote was computer generated. Don't you love the apple stick pin! It's made by Around the Block. I made the drama embellishment with my cricut and highlighted the face with a galaxy white marker.


















This is the inside of card. Message is very short & sweet. I asked Jordan what he wanted to say and this was it!


Thanks for looking,
Janice

What a great card... I am a little bias though as I love music theatre. Great interpretation of the sketch. Just adore how you have decorated the inside too.
Thanks for your kind comment on my blog.
