Just Us Girls #789 ~ love you

Hey there! I'm hosting this week's challenge at Just Us Girls. School started this week in our neck of the woods, so I picked that as my Mood Board theme for you. But you can make anything you like, whatever inspires you from the photo! 

Our Sweet P is moving up to the Intermediate school; 5th grade. Holy smokes, how can that be??!! I made this card with our sweet girl in mind.

I used an arch die and woodgrain paper to mimic the chair. An apple (PTI) and a few Copic colored sprigs were tucked in. I embossed my background paper with an alphabet EF and backed it with the same red used for the apple. A simple tiny tag was tied to the apple to send a little love.

Alrighty, it's your turn now. 

I sure hope you'll join us this week!

Adorable apple in the arch, Lisa! Love the little leafy sprig & embossed background too! Sweet P will love it - they grow up so fast don't they?!

Love everything about this card Lisa, from the embossed background to the wood grained arch, the bright red apple, the sprigs and the sweet message tag...Sweet P will love it! And 5th grade?!! Where has the time gone?!! Our oldest granddaughter starts 5th grade next week and that blows me away too! Need time to slow down so I can catch up!! Hugs. :0)

Lisa, you've created a wonderful school-themed card for your Sweet P. Perhaps she can tuck it in her school bag and bring 'you' to school with her every day.
Grade 5 already; yes, time flies. My niece is headed into Gr. 10 (ACK!) and my nephew, into Gr. 8 (double ACK!)! Growing up happening way too fast!

I just love your card Lisa! The colors, the layout, the subtle alphabet texture, the patterned papers and that great apple...I really need one in my stash. Great ideas put together!

Love your card Lisa. I thought of the white chair as soon as I saw your arched die cut from woodgrain paper. That apple with the tag is so cute. Hope your Sweet P has a great school year.
