Thanks Teacher

This one is a combined Thank You and Merry Christmas card for one of my son's teachers.  He finishes school on the 7th December - next year he will have different teachers so it is a Thank You to the teacher plus also wishing a happy christmas!



The card is for the following challenges:
Love to Create - Give Thanks

Broken Box Stock - Thank You

The background paper for this card comes from Bearly Mine Designs.  The image is one from Just Some Lines.  When I looked at this image the thought of writing a Thank You card for a teacher at christmas time immediately sprung to mind.  The harder challenge was how to create the card.  The sketch at The Sweet Stop was just what I needed to kick start the card! 

The buttons that I have added as embellishments have been diecut from DCWV glitter cardstock using a Memory Box die.  These ones were actually left overs when I cut some smaller ones for another card!
