Welcome to the first card challenge of September for Cards in Envy. With the kids heading back to school, it just makes sense to focus on them. The theme is “For the Kids”. Make a card that is specifically for kids.
I thought some silly face gumballs would be perfect to put a smile on a child’s face.

Kristie, What a fun interpretation of that sketch! Such a cute card! My only question: Only one pink gumball? 🙂
