Our kids start back to school today! Whoo hooo! Of course, by kids, I mean the neighborhood kids. My kids are grown and gone. This is my favorite time of year. I love how quiet the neighborhood becomes and my days seem to slow down. I had lots of cards to make for my little friends, so here is the first one.
I used a sketch by Paper Play Sketches:
I used Silhouette Stitched nesting rectangles and cut them out on my Cameo. What do you think? I think the paper looks more torn than stitched! Oh well, my birthday is September 11th and I have heard hints that I will be getting lots of stitched dies. Hooray crafting presents! Love them!
Here is my take on the sketch. Isn't she fun? I love the sentiment "I like big books and I can not lie" So funny!

This is so cute!!!! I love the sentiment, and how it goes perfectly with the adorable image :) I like the effect that the die gave the paper, sort of a rough stitch...cool :) Thanks for playing along with us at CRAFT this week!
