Today I thought I'd share with you the card I made for my nephew for his birthday last week. He qualified as a teacher this summer hence the theme for his card. I made the blackboard from coffee stirrers (I never leave a coffee shop without a few of them tut tut) and a rectangle of black card made to look ‘chalky’ with SU Whisper White ink.
I’d like to enter this card for Make it Monday which I just discovered via Sarah’s blog Sarah’s Little Snippets.
I love this card by MiM DT member Lisa.

Sue this is gorgeous :) It's always so difficult to make 'boy' cards but this is fab xxx
Very clever "blackboard"! Also, I love to feed the hamster! Ours died a month or so ago but yours is much easier to care for anyways. :)
This is super Sue!! I LOVE your blackboard, what a great idea! and like you I always take the stirrers *blush* but they sit in a wee pile....they are handy for spreading glue too :) The clock button is fab! Sarah xx
Hello Sue :)
I absolutely love your card to your nephew! Congrats to him and what a terrific little blackbaord you've designed on an easel of coffee stirrers..LOL..I love this idea and boy oh boy did you ever surprise me by showing my card too. I'm so happy it inspired you. :) Also, we're so happy you found Make It Monday and decided to join us this week for our linky party! :)
