Mystery Swap--Round 6--Acrobat Hedgie

This card is for a Mystery Swap on SCS.  A group of us are doing a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same mystery image, sent to us by the hostess.  This swap was created by Forest Ranger—Jeanette.  These images were sent to us by Karly, who will swap the cards.  I get to host the next round and I have sent the new images to Karly.  I can't wait to get these swap cards back to see how everyone else used the same image.  And then we get to do it with the image that I selected for November!

Dueling Darling Divas September Card---School is Cool!

 Inside of my card:

Here is my card for round #14 of our very friendly duel.

Jamie—cricket3571--is our great hostess for the Divas for September and sent some awesome items for us to play with and create a wonderful card.  April is the hostess for the Dazzlers and they came up the theme—School is Cool!  Kids and teachers are back at school this month and since I was a teacher myself for 33+ years, I know School is Cool!  Jamie asked us to tell of a favorite memory of school--I do not have one specific, but I do remember being in marching band in high school and participating in many parades.  I loved marching, even when it was hot inside those heavy uniforms.  Our band director was outstanding and we did a different half time performance for every home football game--we made many shapes and formations; now it seems schools use the same performance for the entire fall season.
