Card of the Week: Back to School

My daughter starts grade one this week.

This is a big deal for her and for me.  She will be gone all day every day and we are both feeling sad and excited for this.

I wanted to write her a note of encouragement to give her on her first day so I made this 'back to school' card.
Card Base: Recollections; Patterned Paper: Little Yellow Bicycle; Cardstock: Bazzill; Border Punch: Fiskars; Ribbon: my craft stash; Apple: cut with Silhouette; Adhesive: Scrapbook Adhesives, Quickie Glue

The card has lots of school themed symbols - lined paper, the apple, the bookworm - but what I hope she treasures most are the words written inside letting her know how proud her Daddy and I are of her.
