I am feeling rather tearful today, as both of the girls start back at school tomorrow (there both a bit nervous as its a new school for them both) & after spending 9 weeks together 24/7 its going to be really strange not having them around....the only thing is I get more me time which I am looking forward to, more cards made , more time with me dawgy on our own, I know I have missed my cuddles with him the last 9 weeks...but anyway on with my DT cards
The first card today is for Craft Your Passion, this week we have a theme of 'lace & at least 1 flower' Heres my contribution, I just love this image, I think she is really cute..
I thought about distressing the edges, but as I seem to be doing that on all of my cards just lately I thought I'd do a doodle instead....

Love your cards & you will get used to your girls being off to school. The hard part is when they get married & move clear across the US ... But they still love to come home ...

Hi Shell
Two gorgeous creations. You have been busy.
Will be thinking of you today when your babies go off to their new schools. I hope they both get on OK.
I used to hate the start of a new school year after the long summer break .. ... you just get too used to them being around don't you.
I found it quiet yesterday after having the kids around over the weekend.
Chin up chicken!!

What GREAT cards! Both images are charming! The little girl has such attitude and the little boy is darling! Great choices all the way around! Just think of all that stamping time whilst the girls are in school, makes it easier. Can't wait to see them in their new blazers!
Love it babes, reminds me of your Danni in the morning when she was here before she got hold of the straighteners!!!! Except her hair is a bit more red than your piccy!!!
they are both so cute!
