Smelling Something

     Hello everyone! Today is my daughters first day at Public school and i'm a nervous wreck. She has been at a private little school in Greencastle for 7 years counting Pre-kindergarten and now she's riding the bus to Middle school. I have to admit that i did cry this morning when she got on her bus. My husband and son thought that i was CRAZY, but i don't care! I still worry about her. I'll be very excited to hear about her first day.
     I did make a card today with a cute little skunk on it from Meljens designs. I just bought this sizzix Tim Holtz embossing folder yesterday.  I colored the image with Copic Markers.

    Hi Deonna,
    Your card is very sweet, thankyou for sharing it with us at CraftyCatz this week.

    I do hope your Daughters first day was a pleasant one, I remember crying when mine started high school, oh it's so scary, maybe it's just a women thing, you never stop feeling that way...fingers crossed for her anyway.xxx

    Deonna,
    I never would have thought a vintagey looking Tim Holtz embossed design would go so well with a cutesy little skunk!! What an awesome combination - thanks for sharing that with us at Tuesday Throwdown.

    What a darling card, Deonna! I really like your layout, and how the pink and black squares play off the colors in the image. Thanks for sharing with us at Tuesday Throwdown! Praying your daughter had a good first day of school! I don't think we moms ever stop worrying about our "babies." :-)
