This is for the reverse stencil technique and for the CAS challenge, to make a card for educators and staff to show appreciation. My DD is the assistant to the principal at an elementary school. She has to deal with the ins and outs of virtual schooling, working from home, as well as home schooling a 1st grader and a 3rd grader, both boys! She is trying so hard to get everything done, but some days just don't go very well! My heart goes out to her and I wanted to send a card, telling her how awesome she is! This is such a trying time for everyone!

Great card to send to her. What a difficult time for her, and I know your heart just goes out to her, my friend. Lovely card using both challenges today. Well done. Hugs.

This turned out really pretty with your stencil and those great colors. I feel for her..she's got a lot of roles to fill. Remind her to take care of herself.
Just lovely -- perfect match between stencil and colors. I feel for all the parents dealing with distance learning -- and she has even more on her plate than most. Hope this brings a smile to her face and lifts her heart.

Love your stencil monoprint background, Sue. I can't imagine how difficult it is for Erin and all the parents who are working and homeschooling their kids. I am sure she will shed a few tears and appreciate your sweet and beautiful card. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs..Nancy
P.S. Love how you traced your stencil images. Really made them pop!

That is both a beautiful card and a beautiful thought. I know what it has been like for teachers and school staff trying to prepare for this new year. I'm sure your daughter will love and appreciate this affirmation.

This is a perfect and lovely card that is sure to be appreciated. Nothing is at all convenient for anyone and it really stinks. What a wonderful time to be sending smiles with our cards! Great challenge combo. I love the stencil you chose!
