Magazine Margie

One more school day left here. I made this card as a thank you for my son's Kindergarten teacher. I'm giving it to her along with a book store gift card. She was very gung- ho about teaching reading and appreciation for books, which I think is so great. We love reading and it's so exciting to pass that on to the kids and see them learn how to read.

This darling image is Magazine Margie from Sassy Studio Designs. Isn't she fabulous?! Good news is I'll be seeing a lot more of her and her sassy friends, because I just became a member of the Sassy Studio Design team. So very excited to work with Lindsay's fun images and the other talented ladies on the team!

The sketch for this came from Cute Card Thursdays challenge #117, perfect for a larger image! I used the nestie die cut to cut her out, because I think it looks like a book. Gotta run with the theme!

Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you are staying cool!

Stamps: Sassy Studio Magazine Margie, PTI sentiment
Ink: Printer, palette noir
Paper: gp110, PTI Spring Moss, SU Only Orange, DCWV Citrus Stack
