Still thinking about London...

I have scrapped absolutely NO pages from the London trip yet... Today's scrapping actually was from last year's trip to the beach so maybe I'll get to April's trip next summer...

But I HAVE been thinking about the trip and decided to make a London inspired card for a certain friend on her way to NYU using my favorite Kraftin Kimmie stamp Eloise...

I'll be submitting this one to Kraftin Kimmie for the favorite stamp challenge this week... Thanks for checking her out! :)

Something Bella for High School

Hi there blog land! Yesterday was such a crazy hectic day because Elijah had surgery to put in ear tubes and have his adnoid removed. He was so cranky after the anesthesia that all I could dream about was putting him to sleep and getting crafty. I mean along with a glass of wine, what better way is there to unwind? ;)

So I cracked out the Bellas that were once my obsession and have recently been collecting mire dust than I care to admit. This card is the first of next year's palancas... I may have mentioned that a tradition at my school is for all the teachers to give the graduating seniors a note of encouragement around the end of the year. So of COURSE I had to go and start making individualized cards for each student... But in order to prevent it from becoming too much of a burden I have had to start the cards as early as possible...

This one is for a special student who was a pleasant surprise as a junior... One who loves to listen to her music but uses it to help concentrate and ROCK her assignments in class... I have high hopes for this miss next year...

I am submitting this one to Card Makin Mamas who challenged us to whip out our rubber stamps and Do You Stack Up who challenged us to use red as a predominant color. Thanks for looking!!
