Oh, this was so fun!! To make the folder, I carefully separated the scalloped sleeve from the back of the folder, so the whole folder lay flat, then I made a tracer so I could make many more of these babies :) I hope you enjoyed this project as much as I enjoyed making it and sharing it with you. Have a lovely day and wish me luck tomorrow, not so much with the kids, but with getting up early and not having a lazy morning!! LOL Hugs!!

OKay Maureen - I'm going to try to leave a comment. I love ALL of the cards you have made this summer. I admire your enthusiasm and your passion for card making - along with your amazing talent!!!! As for wishing you luck for tomorrow - I'm afraid I need it, too....I've been sleeping in all summer including today and have no idea how I will start getting up at 6am!!!! So - best of luck to both of us! Enjoy your new school. I want to come to see you at work in your studio some time and see all of the cool stamps, paper, etc... that you have!!! Take care. Pam L. :)
PS. I forgot to say I am totally drawn to pink and orange combined (mainly anything PINK!) - so definitely loved the card with those colour combinations!!! PL :)
Oh those purse papers were MADE for you, Diva! LOL!
I have to confess I do love your take on the project more though *wink* Especially those notes with the gorgeous leaves on!
Hope work goes well tomorrow! For me, it's like I've never been away!
Hugs,
Aimes

Great project and fabulous "Maureen" paper :)
Best of luck on day one! I too will miss my leisurely mornings and will be very tired for a week as my body adjusts to a new bed time and rising time! Unfortunately the bed time takes a bit longer to adjust but I eventually get tired enough to get to be earlier LOL! Just two more sleeps until my first "me" day in a long time, can't wait :)
Love your take on this project, Maureen! Fabulous DP and what a way to showcase those great Verve sentiments. You've inspired me to try a similar project!
Have a great day, tomorrow! It's gonna be a great year! ;)
Oh this is adorable. Every girl needs purse papers!
And I just realized that I misunderstood the Verve Challenge. I thought you could only use the newest release (and mine are not here yet)to make your projects. So I will have to get to work on a couple of cards this week to enter.
Maureen, this entire project is absolutely darling! The outside of the folder is so pretty... Those colors, that dp, some beautiful Verve stamps. I didn't order that flower set and you seriously have me rethinking that decision. How do you get them so light? Are you stamping off first?
So, it's back to work with you in the morning, right? Have an amazing first day, my friend! Enjoy the new grade (and remember they will feel really little at the beginning!), but second graders are AWESOME! I loved my 3 years of working with them. Have a wonderful 4-day work week! Here's looking forward to Friday! :)
GORGEOUS! You never cease to amaze me, girl!
What a wonderful idea. And yours IS much prettier! ;)
This is such a cool project! Love it!
