You Aced It

Our grandson aced it - he's on the honor roll, and he made the basketball team.  He's a scholar and an athlete :)  His proud granny and grandpa sent him this card:


When he visited us this past summer, our grandson was totally into card tricks. He was absolutely amazing.  He had us, our neighbors and friends, even strangers, totally enthralled by what he could do.  So I ordered this stamp set called In the Cards from Cas-ual Fridays. I fussy cut the cards after stamping them. I made the red dots with a hole punch - flatter than enamel dots for mailing. The dots have a bit of clear Wink of Stella. Quick and easy!  I'm delighted with how it turned out.

I'm entering a few challenges:  Stamplorations December Challenge - Stamps & Designer's Choice (I chose the April challenge-favorite technique Fussy Cutting); Simon Says Monday Challenge - Anything Goes; Addicted to Stamps & More - Anything Goes - Option Love.

Have a great day!
