My big kids are just about to go back to school! I am very much looking forward to being back to a set routine, but I am not looking forward to all the things...worrying about grades and homework on top of extra curricular and work and all the things!! And there are a lot of things! I'm also not at all a fan of early mornings, haha...
But I am currently determined to do better about sending little notes of encouragement in their lunches, so I better get some made, right? That's what today's project is.
This new-to-me stamp set is designed with something else in mind (that I am a fan of, and a project is coming!) but ultimately I decided to purchase this set because of these images. Going along with the A Good Man set and the dad with the children, I can think of many times a hug from a mom is a good image too! So I picked the sketch found on the Fab Friday blog, and my plan totally fits the latest Paper Players challenge! Annd I typed up and printed off the greeting. I don't know if I own this phrase in a retired set, but I don't own it in my current stash, so yeay for the computer, haha. Because this is what it needs to say.
