  7. What an absolutely great idea to make an encouragement card for back to school! I taught secondary school for several years and know exactly those "not too fond of school" kids that you're talking about. I bet they would've had a better time if they would've gotten a card like this! I really like all the school-related elements you included like the ruler and scissors. It is just perfect and I appreciate the inspiration. Thank you for sharing this with us here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!
