Happy Monday....wishing everyone a wonderful Memorial Day here in the US. This is a quick post with my card for the new challenge at The Challenge...this week is a themed challenge celebrating teachers.

I hope you will find the time to play along with us, there are so many wonderful cards to use as inspiration on our blog, here is the link
I am still working hard on getting caught up on commenting...I still have a bit of this ugly bug, I just can't seen to shake it. Yesterday I made a big pot of chicken soup...my fingers are crossed that it does the trick! Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your day!
