This week, MotherMark posted a really cute green teapot with a cute picture of a schoolhouse on it.
My card doesn't have a schoolhouse but it does have a green background and a room that's in the school house. The excercise room, I guess since it's a school it's the GYM room. You know what they say "Exercise is good for the brain"
Our cards are to have numbers on them. My numbers are in the background paper which is core paper that I sanded to show the numbers. There's also numbers on the house mouse image...which my husband highlighted each and every number with a micron pen. He colored the image with copics. I added a heart monitor (picture found on the internet) and added glossy accents to the face of the watch.
The inside of my card reads "Exercise is the chief source of improvement in our faculities" Hugh Blair
