A pocket full of THANKS!



I absolutely love this pocket stamp! I was not a kit of the month member yet when this one came out, but it was one of the kits I HAD to have. I believe it is retired now. It came with "a pocket full of" stamp and some words that could come after it like "posies". I decided to use it as an open pocket to put things in and the word Thanks. I love how they turned out and I plan to make more in a variety of colors. I especially love the one that I added gracias to. In case you didn't know, when I'm not scrapping, cardmaking, or taking care of my kids (actually I should say the majority of my time) I'm speaking Spanish and sharing my love for the language with high schoolers.

It is an interesting job and no two days are the same. One can be really prepared, but not prepared enough for what might come up. I love it - it is spontaneous, fun, interesting, and cultural. Unfortunately, I do have to live with some drama and I am so not into drama!!! :) The seniors have a countdown going on my back board - 28 more days for them. We have so much Spanish to learn in that time.














Back to my cards, I have a pocket full of things to be thankful for: my family, my friends, my very interesting career, my home and resources, my students, Spring, being able to spend some time crafting, and so many other things! What are you thankful for?

Have a great weekend all. I will be celebrating my Mimi's 2nd birthday with a Dora the Explorer party. (She loves Wada - her word for Dora - and she hasn't even seen the show :) See more Unity beauties here.
