Back To School

Todays challenge on the Cute Card Thursday blog's theme is "Things That Grow". My goodness.. defenetly kids :-) i can not believe my "baby" will be in Kindergarten this fall. I made this gift card holder using Beates instructions. It was so easy and super fun to make. Inside the holder is a gift card tucked to use at Borders a big bookstore chain here.
