About Me

My photo
I am Sarah, a stay at home mom of two wonderful, little boys. In my life before kids I was a fifth grade teacher. I now work with first year teachers, which I love. Creating is one of the ways I stay sane. I become very cranky if I have not stamped or scrapped in a while. Join me on this creative journey.

Congrats



I hope you are all having a lovely Sunday. My husband took the boys to visit his parents so I am all alone. I spent a good part of the day cleaning my scrap room. Wow, I have a lot of stuff. We are actually having a yard sale next weekend and I have over 100 Stampin' Up stamp sets to sell. I did take a break to participate in another CAS-ual Friday challenge. This week you need to create a graduation card. I went through all of my Papertrey stamps and took out all of the congratulations type stamps, I then put them all on my clear block and stamped the background. I can't take credit for this technique, the Papertrey blog had a tutorial on it a few weeks back. :) Be sure to check out the rest of the Graduation projects over at the CAS-ual Friday blog. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

Love the background text panel! I would never have thought of sticking the sentiments all on the same block, that would have saved me some time! Love the colors you chose for this card too :) Thanks for playing this week at CAS-ual Fridays!
