Dawson's School Teacher!

My son came to me and asked me to make a Card for his Teacher as well, so I told him to go through my stamps and pick something out that he liked.. His comment was - Mommy you have nothing Toronto Maple Leafs - LoL, I told him of course not Buddy, we don't cheer for them.. but that's her favourite team and I don't see anything else that I think she will like... so he opted for this stamp from Stampin Up - Day of Gratitude, the Paper used is CTMH - Magnifique Workshop on the Go Paper pack, the Ink used is Lagoon and Bamboo from CTMH - the Merry Christmas is from an unknown company, I lost the package it came in in one of my crazy clean up nights.. the ribbon is from Michael's.
