First Day of Third Grade!

A card for two challenges ending at noon ~ CASology and ColourQ.
I suspect I am definitely in the minority of Moms who are sad 
to see the end of summer, and the beginning of the school year.
I hate having to work full time (and sometimes more), 
and really enjoy the extra time I have with my son in summer.
School beginning means many things, but definitely the end of
lazy days and a stricter schedule, hence my alarm clock image.
I made a card a few days ago for the ColourQ challenge. I
still can't decide if I like it, so I am not going to link it.

  4. Jean I was looking and looking at your first beautiful card and thinking…. hmmm how could this be used as a school card. Well, I finally scrolled down and saw your other card. lol.. I got up too early this morning. Love the way you only added bling for color on the first one , nice idea. The school card is adorable with the alarm clock. Very creative!

  10. Too funny, I did the same as Marybeth, just could not make the school connection with the hanging lanterns and finally scrolled down. This is just the cutest card ever for back to school, so clever and so much fun.
