This card is off to a wonderful friend of mine who welcomed her first grandson this week. We met as brand new teachers way back in 1971 when we were assigned neighboring classrooms and have been friends ever since. We were something else with our long straight hair, mini skirts and platform shoes..........seems like yesterday............
Hope you join us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!

That little heart is so so sweet!
Linda, ths is darling! Love the fresh color combo and your awesome sketch. The heart border and littler heart accent are such great touches for a baby card. I'm sure your friend will love it! :)
Adorable, Linda! You are going to be so sick of baby cards soon. :)
This is adorable! I have had this set for quite a while and still haven't inked it up. But since I am going to have my first grandchild in December, I am betting I will be using it before long!
And if you started teaching in 1971 that means you are just a few years older than me because I graduated high school in 71! Doesn't really seem all that long ago in some ways, but in others it seems like forever!
Love the flashback description! This is sweet little scene. Love the little heart on the crib!
Oh so sweet...and I love the "memory"....I am right there with ya! In fact, I fell right off the curb in my platform shoes, getting on a bus...talk about embarrassing!
Sweet card Linda! I love the blue and yellow together and that crib is adorable. I'm right there with ya in the 70's - I wish I had more photos of me back then - so funny!
Baby-liscious!
You're still something else, LInda! This is a great card and your friend will love it. I love the yellow with the blue, it's perfect for a little boy.
Adorable, Linda! I love the button heart and the bling! I know your friend will love this! I am so happy to begin my stint at FMS with one of your fabulous sketches!
Very cute Linda! I'm sure your friend will love it! I haven't purchased that stamp set yet but now I'm starting to think it might be a great investment!!!
Platform shoes are in again aren't they!!! I would probably break my neck!!!
Great to be on the Design Team with you!!!!
Adorable and thoughtful card. I really like the color combo you've used. Neat!
I'm sure she is going to be so excited to get this (like she isn't excited enough about the baby!). Long time friends are the best and how wonderful that you are still close! Great sketch this week...thanks for this one!
Awww, what a super sweet card! So thoughtful of you! But please don't leave us hanging, I want to see a pic of the long hair, mini skirt and platform shoes!!
What a great card for your friend. And I'm with Angie - let's see the photographic evidence of your wild and crazy days!
Adorable card Linda! This sketch is fun! 1971 hey? WOW! Sometimes I wonder if I will make it through, all those years of teaching (LOL!) but you are right, we make such good friends with our neighbouring classrooms! I love that you are still friends!
Hugs,
Lesley

Oh what a darling card Linda! I love your sketch and the little pop of red in the heart is so sweeeet! I'm with the others....photo, photo, photo!!
It does seem like yesterday! How did we get to be grandparents so quickly? This is an adorable baby card. One I'm sure will be treasured.
