Congrats to a UNF Graduate

Today is the last day of Winter Break! Boo Hoo! Even though I was sick with bronchitis for most of my vacation, I still enjoyed the time off. I am looking forward to going back to school in the morning and seeing my students. I am sure they will have on new clothes and have LOTS of stories to share!
 
I spent a few hours in the classroom this afternoon getting lesson plans and literacy centers ready. Time to get back into learning mode! I have planned for most of January, so only a little tweaking will be needed throughout the month. That should allow me to craft during the week since I have LOTS of projects I want to work on.
 
  Here is a card I made not too long ago. It was for a telecommunication student who just graduated from UNF ~ University of North Florida, which is in Jacksonville. It is a beautiful school that sits on a 500 acre nature preserve.  Oh yeah...these are the school colors too!
 She is going to be working for a TV station, so I added the Nifty Fifties television (p. 32) cut.
I created the banner after I typed and printed the sentiment. I used Harrington font.
Other Materials:
grey, dark blue, black, and white card stock
Plantin Schoolbook ~ font cut at 1/2"
Swiss Dots embossing folder
Scalloped Edge punch
blue ink 
blue pearls
 
Be safe and stay warm this week with all the snow storms! BRRR!!!

  4. This is super adorable! I love how you made this personal! Perfect for that UNF graduate for sure. I was born and raised in Florida and I miss it especially in the winter. Getting those single digit temps tonight here in Virginia! UGH!

    I'm so sorry that you were ill for much of your holiday. No fun at all! I hope you're feeling much better and that your return to school went well today. We ended up with a snow day for the first day "back"!
