My kiddos go back to school Thursday.
It’s always bitter-sweet, but I know both them and I are ready to get back in the swing of things.
I’m not sure exactly when the tradition started, but I always hide a card in their lunch box the first day of school. My kiddos make their own lunches, so it’s getting harder and harder to “sneak” them in, but I know they look forward to them.
This year I made their cards using the Harvest Hellos and Buffalo Check Stamp Sets. The cards are all a similar design, but with different details depending on their personality.
For my son, going into 6th grade, also my picky eater, he’ll only eat Granny Smith Apples, so of course his card had green apples using Granny Apple Green colors.
For my youngest daughter, going into 4th grade, she’s going through an “I love red and black” phase, so I kept a Basic Black card base and added some sparkly black ribbon.
For my oldest daughter, going into 8th grade, she’s obsessed with apples (yes, I even have to limit her to two apples a day), I kept things different than her sister’s (because heaven forbid I did the same) and added some extra details with the seeds.
Overall, I think they’ll like their cards and I can’t wait to hear all about their first day of school.
Enjoy!

Sweet cards! Love the colors on all, great colors and designs! 🙂
I think they will LOVE their cards…I do! I just love your ingenuity and creativity with the buffalo check stamp. My daughter was also obsessed with red and black at that age. She wanted to paint her bedroom black but we compromised and let her paint it red. She had a red wall-to-wall carpet too.
