Thanks to you, Friend!
Here’s a bit of a twist on the Back to School set from My Favorite Things. I thought this would work well as a thank you for a business associate/friend.
The patterned papers are from Basic Grey’s Perhaps paper pad. For the suits, I paper pieced from the fabric-looking solid “prints.” The buckle is also from Basic Grey. I used SU’s ticket corner punch on the corners. The blocks just looked a little plain with square corners. The sentiment is from My Favorite Things Sassy Sayings, and I did my little switch-a-roo arm trick.
This is such a fun set! So many different looks!
Thanks for stopping by!
