First Week Blues

Morning all. 

Well we've all survived the first "week" back at school. We'll see how a whole five days go next week ;)

My friend's wee girl was starting school on Wednesday and she asked me to make a card for her so this is what I came up with. I used Digi Stamp Boutique's Off to School Rosie. I was a bit stuck for papers cos I stupidly asked what colour Lucy's school bag and lunch bag were - yes, you guessed it - they're pink! However there wasn't that much to colour and I think I got away with it by using these papers from my scrap box.
