Special for Anna


This is a card for a granddaughter - she is starting her senior year in college, and will student teach in the spring.  We thought she could use a few extra $$ - we cannot quite imagine how young families today can manage household expenses together with what is needed for college.
There is not much to explain.  I used Olivia (CB) letters, snowflake ef (CB) - I know that is out of season but it seems kind of like a celebration to me - and a sentiment from a Recollections set.
I did not add to this sketch:  http://skippingstonesdesign.com/
