1st Day of School Cards



I like to make first day of school cards for my kids' teachers.  It helps break the ice and lets them know we're there to support them. 

This card is for my son's teacher.  My daughter had her too, so I know she has a Bernese Mountain Dog.  I tried to color the pup stamp to look like a Bernie.

This card is for my daughter's teacher.  She is a brand-new teacher, just out of college. My daughter's small, sweet class is the perfect start to a new teaching career.  They are smitten with her already!
