Back to School

Today is the first day of school for 2014 / 2015 in our fair city. I made this card for a special grand niece who comes and crafts with me from time to time. She holds a special place in my heart. She's very open and direct... creative like her grand aunt... and pays attention to detail. I love that about her! A girl after my own heart. :)
