Hello 2nd Grade!

 


Hey there, it's photo week at Just Us Girls and I'm hosting!

Fall is just around the corner and that means it's back to school time. 

I'm celebrating our little second grader with a special card made just for her!



This card started with the polka dot apple (PTI). I used coordinating paper for the background then layered on all of the school cuteness. Concord and 9th crayons and hearts, PTI spiral notebook page, and old #2 Quickkutz die with Hero Arts letters added. I wrote 'grade' myself. 

This card was waiting for my Sweet P at our "Thursday morning breakfast at gramma's!" Her favorite was served ~ waffles, bacon and fruit!

I hope you'll play along with us this week. Don't need a back to school card? No problem. There are apples, stars, art supplies and lots of colors in the graphic to inspire you!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm entering this one in the Tic Tac Toe Challenge using the first horizontal line of blue, crayon and letters. I also have the apple, red and back to school boxes checked!
