I stamped the sentiment on a piece of twill ribbon, to look sort of like a garment label, but the ink bled slightly and it's irritating me... so I might end up changing it!

Here's a pic of my little schoolboy Dex, as promised yesterday :o)
He's not as worried as he looks - just not keen on having his photo taken... bit like me then! And they've all got name labels on this week while their teacher gets to know them... just in case you thought I'd labelled him myself lol.
Hope you have a lovely evening :o)
This card is gorgeous and these papers are stunning.
