So, I'm trying to mentally prepare myself, and what better way than to make cards? I'm hoping to get plenty made so that I can sneak them in some colleagues' boxes when we return!
Here's one to start:
Do you see that measuring tape ribbon? That's an old, old measuring tape my grandmother used for sewing. It's actually material and not the plastic stuff they use now. I found it in a box of her old sewing supplies, and I'm so glad I did!

Cute card, Lee Anne! I'm trying to use every ounce of extra time to craft before school starts again too! Isn't it fun to go through grandma's old things? I have a cigar box filled with old trims and buttons from my grandma, I just love it!
Super card, I love its happy feel.
This is really a fun card, Lee Anne! :) Love the school theme!
Very adorable card!
This is super cute Lee Anne!!
This is so cute!
Lee Anne, what a nice treat to receive for the return to school. I love the tape measure that was your grandmother's. What a nice find. Your card is so cute.
Love that tape measure trim. I'll have to remember that in the future. I understand needing the summer break as a teacher 100%. I taught 4th grade, and I think I was more excited for the summer break than the kids were.
