Teacher Appreciation Cards - Science

This is the last week of school for the kids so I am busy finishing up thank you notes for my daughter's teachers. 

This thank you card is for my daughter's science teacher.  I kept it quite simple (I have several to make, after all) and based it on a sketch from Unscripted Sketches.  The sentiment is a new stamp I just got from Verve ("Happy Hellos") and the paper is something I found over the weekend cleaning out my daughter's very old craft bin - it's actually oragami paper.  The center panel is embossed with a Cuttlebug folder in a reptile pattern - I thought it was a nice complement to the python paper :-)

Challenges include:

    Great job interpreting the sketch! Your color combo is awesome! I love the bold red textured panel - it really draws the red out of the patterned paper. Thanks for choosing to play along with us this week at Unscripted Sketches. Hope you can join us again next week :)
