Good Wednesday Morning! Yippee! Today is the day that I get to share some Blog Candy with you! The set that I chose to share with you is called A Touch of Class from Storage Units, Ink and More! Being a teacher, you may have guessed that I have always loved going to school, so this was the perfect set for me! Would you like a chance to win this set? Just leave me a comment on this post and let me know if you enjoyed going to school or not. I'll pick a winner on Saturday afternoon. Best of luck to you!Here are a few details about the card. The card base is Core'dinations Raspberry. I also added a layer of Core'dinations Tranquil Blue with a touch of plaid designer paper from Scenic Route. The wide red grosgrain is from Stampin' Up and the button is from Doodlebug Designs. I colored up my little school girl with watercolor pencils and markers. I took advantage of the fact that this is a clear stamp set, so I was able to bend the sentiment into a curve to fit nicely just above the little girl.
If you feel that Lady Luck is with you today, then be sure to head over to Leigh's blog, Sunflower Studio. She has a stamp set up for grabs as well. Hope that you all have a wonderful day! Thanks so much for stopping by...Toodles!!! :D

Good Morning!
School was pretty good at the time but I think I would enjoy it more now that I know more about it & life. Funny huh?!
hi! first of all, great card, cute image and nice coloring, school? OMG:P it was not so bad, I really enjoyed it becouse of my wonderful firends and few really good teachers
Hi Kimberly,
I LOVED school! I enjoyed learning, the majority of my teachers and especially spending time with all my friends. Graduation for me, was bittersweet. It was a great accomplishment but I was sad to say goodbye to my friends, teachers and all the good times at school!
Now that my youngest child of six is five, I am pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education and I am enjoying every minute of it!
Thanks for the opportunity to win some yummy blog candy!
Jenn
I love your card, she is so adorable. I am one of those people who loved going to school. I could not wait for August to come around so I could by new school supplies. I guess that is why I became a teacher. The thrill of opening new crayon and pencil boxes and getting to meet your teacher for the first time.
Thanks!!
Cute cute card! Going to school was ok, plus meet some good friends that we still keep in touch. This set would be awesome to win. In my neighborhood there are 4 teachers and a principal, so this set would get plenty of love and ink. Thanks for a chance.
Hello, enjoy checking out your blog! What a cute card.
I loved going to school, more for social reasons than educational :o)))
Have a great day!
Kimberly- Hey! I was attracted to your card in the SCS gallery and it brought me here! I love your work and have added your blog to my favorites. I too, loved school! Thanks for the blog candy opportunity!
Good morning Kimberly!
This card is beautiful, just like all your work.
I loved school and I was always working hard to be the first of my class! I wanted to become a teacher when I was little, but I became a financial analyst. Now I am giving scrapbooking classes... a dream came through!

(sorry for my pour english, I am French)
I really like your card. I always loved school when I was little...and now I'm a teacher so I still get to go everyday!
I loved school and I love this stamp set. I loved school so much that I've decided to be a teacher "when I grow up". LOL! I am working on slowly but surely and hope to be teaching kindergarden by the time my 2yo goes to pre-k. I was considering ordering this set for back to school cards for my daughter,but maybe I'll win it instead. I especially love the desk. It really reminds me of elementary school. Our children know nothing of desk as they are always seated around tables.
Good morning. I liked school. I'm fairly social, ahem to but it mildly, it was a great place to socialize!
Have a great day!
Thanks for offering the blog candy. I did enjoy going to school, for the social interaction. I could have lived without algebra and chemistry though. Glad that is over and done with.

Good morning!!!
As a student I don't like to go to school, but I'm a teacher, so now I love the school, this set is amazing, thanks for the opportunity and the card is awsome, love the colors.
Kimberly-Good morning! Thanks for the chance to win!! I actually liked school alot. I had some good friends and I was a talker so that helps-LOL!
Have a great day!
Cathy
Although I got good grades throughout school, I can't say that I really enjoyed it. I didn't mind going to school but I don't have any lasting memories of my time in school.
Kimberly this is beautiful! I love the colors!!
Great card. I really like your layout and your coloring. Thanks for a chance for blog candy!
Cute card! I enjoyed school - the early grades were more enjoyable. Had some great teachers!
wow... pretty card!
Yup, I loved school! I loved it even more when I decided to go back later in life (college). thank you for the opportunity to win this set.
I enjoyed school and was always ready to go back after the summer was over. Getting all new school supplies...especially new crayons. Cute card and stamp set!
I love school! :) Even more with the good friends and fun subjects (the ones that I was good at! :P)

I loved school and everything about it. I'm a teacher now and I still love going everyday.
I loved school, especially high school. Very cute card.
CKMom
I, like you, am a teacher today because I LOVE school. Fall is my favorite time of year...the crisp air, the new clothes, the school supplies. I can actually sniff a new book (yes, I'm weird!) and get excited about school again!
School was fun for me. I loved organizing my folders, desk and locker...and guess what, I became a teacher, too! I love going everyday and laugh and learn with the children. They're so fun!
Love your card!
I always loved going to school. I especially loved buying all the new supplies--nothing like a fresh box of crayons and new binders to get you in the mood for school. I still enjoy buying them for my kids! Thanks for the chance!
Suzanne Dean
Not only did I enjoy going to school, I beacme a teacher and then an administrator. I retired early to move with my hubby and have just started subbing just to be with kids, and watch the exxcitment in their eyes is great. Thanks for this opportunity to win.Have a great day
Eileen
What an adorable card. Thanks for the chance to win.
Aww this is CUTE! I always enjoy a cute school themed set epecially since my 1st DD just started Kindergarden (TODAY)! Your card is adorable! Great Job! I'm looking fwd to seeing the rest of this set.
Have a Blessed Day!
I actually hated school!!! Kids were so mean.... Thanks for the chance to win this cool set.
Thanks

I loved going to school-I still love the idea if I could go back :P. I always loved shopping for new supplies, even though we were poorer than most of my classmates (you know free lunch/reduced rates on tuition). I always looked around the local drugstore to buy the most stuff (with plenty of variety) with the small amount of money that I had saved up all summer. Oh and by the way, your card is adorable. She's wearing pants like I used to have..LOL!
I really have loved school my entire life, which is probably why, like you, I became a teacher! :) And that is probably why, like you, I need that set. Hint, hint! ;)
Hello! I LOVED school. Although in the later years of high school I think it was just hanging around with my friends I loved the most...;) Thanks for this opportunity to win blog candy!
Great card. Perfect for the beginning of the school year. I loved it when school first started. Buying new clothes, supplies, starting new classes and seeing friends you have missed. By the end of school, I had enough and was ready for summer!!
This card is so cute! I didn't enjoy school when I was in it, but I worked with children with special needs and I enjoyed going to school with them.

Great card. I loved school and learning new things. I always wanted to be a teacher but life did not take me in that direction. I do teach software, so maybe it did take me there.
I loved high school !!!!!
luckydolls123[at]verizon[dot]net
what a cute card! I would say that i really enjoyed school. I liked being able to spend time with all my friends in one place everyday. I enjoy learning new stuff and i actually liked taking tests.
I'm a teacher too so it would really work for me, plus i have little ones who will eventually be heading off to school!
Cute card! I loved going to school. I wish now that I had paid a little more attention to my studies. Thanks for the chance.
Thanks for the chance to win! I hated returning to school in my elementary years. But when I got into middle school, and high school I enjoyed going back to see my friends. I don't think I could survive in todays high schools!
Brenda
I love the card! As far as school, no I did not enjoy school. Remember the song "Seventeen" by Janice Ian. That could have been my theme song. I outgrew it though, and married a great guy and have 3 wonderful children and 3, almost 4 grandchildren.
Your card makes me want to redo elementary school but only if I could be much taller and bigger. I was short and skinny and always last to be picked for a team. College was great tho' and being over 50 is fab!
Oh, I loved going to school and my favorite game was playing "school" with the neighborhood kids and my sisters. Guess what I do now? I teach!
Great blog candy and I love your card.
Cute card! School was so-so for me. I was REALLY shy so that part was difficult. I was pretty good at the academic part, though.
What a cute card! I remember that going to school was a fun thing. I didn't have my best friend live next door like my sister did so going to school meant seeing all of my friends and having some fun!

Ooooh no I hated school, think I would love it more now than then, lol - if we only knew then what we know now, lol
thanks for the chance to win some fab candy
Wonderful card! That little girl looks like someone I would have been friends with as a kid. I loved school, and I'd love to win this blog candy too!
Good Morning - wow, love school? I always said I could have been a professional student for life. I loved school that much. I know most people think I'm weird, haha. My 7 yr old is the same way, just loves school and the schedule. Actually I just think he likes a schedule - knowing where he has to be and what to do every day. So this is a great set for our household. Thanks for the chance to win. I'm just loving all of their new sets! Cheryl
oh wow! I LOVED school. I would love to go back now. I loved all grade levels. It was one of the best times of my life. :)
I usually enjoyed school. Especially the early and later grades :) Any grade where you still had recess was great! :)
Thanks for the chance to win some stamps. School was fun for lots of reasons
I loved going back to school. It was so exciting to see everyone. And to finally get one new outfit. Always about the clothes even then!
I hated going to school because it cut into my climbing trees and swinging vines! But I did do good in school!
Angie
Your card is adorable!!!
No I can say I did not like going back to school. Summers were way fun and going back to do homework wasn't much fun for me. I received great grades though. TFS!

I did like school a lot but in August I am sure I hated to think of getting up and going again. Linda Gerig
Very nice card! I think in general I liked going to school especially grade school and college.

Beautiful card Kim! It is so cute! :D I too am a teacher so of course I enjoy school! :) Thanks for the chance to win!
I actually HATED going to school, which makes it even funnier that I am a teacher now!!! My family gets a BIG kick out of teasing me about that every time we all get together!
jenstamps@bellsouth.net
I loved school. I would be a professional student if I could. I taught for years, before economics encouraged me to follow another dream. Thanks for the chance and the walk down memory lane!
hehe, I love going school because I can communicate with many different people and I can hang out with them. Indeed, studying is such a boring thing, but it would not bother me a lot because I know it will be passed soon.
Hello! Cute card!!!!
I never liked the idea of going to school, but once I was there, I was ok with it.
Thanks for the chance to win!
Yup! I loved going off to school in the fall. The new clothes, books, supplies. And getting to be with my friends that I had not seen all summer.
What a nice card. Good choice of colors!
I love school...that's why I still work in one. Summer vacation is an awesome perk too! ;)

SHe is just adorable!!! I enjoyed grade school very much - lots of great memories, no peer pressure, no need to fit in...just plain, innocent fun! Then high school, college....not so much!
How fun to have a school set, not many of those around these days. Love the card as well so cute!

Hello Kimberly, love your card, cute little girl. I enjoyed school most of the time, met a lot of dear friends at school, and some awesome teachers who encouraged me, would I want to repeat those years, not really, if it had not been for all that I went through during those years I would not be the woman I am today.
thank you for a chance to enter.
Blessings...
School for me wasn't just the learning experience, but also where I made life long friendships. We studied together, talked about boys together...confided our deepest secrets to each other.... and now, in our adult lives, we reflect together...do you remember Miss So and So? Or...remember when so and so did this and the teacher was sssooo mad!!
It's not only the book learning I remember, but now, years later I can still recall those years with friends I still have :~)
Thanks for asking me to remember the things I hold dear even today.
Pam
Yes, I was a real keener in school. Probably explains why I became a teacher too.

Thanks for the chance to win!!
I loved school - to learn new things and have the chance to see all my buddies. It was great! - Mandy

Love the color combo on your card. I enjoyed school very much. My sister and I were involved in many activities that have given me fond memories. Have a good day.
I really enjoyed school and love to volunteer at my kids school.
Your card is just darling!
I love your cards! I have always enjoyed school. I loved picking out my new stuff each year. Thanks for the chance to win.
LOL...I was always looking for a way to get OUT of school...I finally liked school in college.

I loved going to school! Those were some of the best years of my life!!
As a teacher I too have always enjoyed going to school!! The card is wonderful!!
Hi! I was one of those kids who loved school and worked ahead in my workbooks. What a nerd!
I loved school. In fact, when I was little, I wanted to be a school teacher, but that never happened. Although I have a daughter-in-law that teaches 2nd grade.
hi, love your card. I definetly like going to school, and now that I'm older I appreciate even more my time at school.
Your card is really cute!!! I really enjoyed school, well, when I was in my school years I really wanted to graduate, and when i graduated I wanted to come back, LOL
Thanks so much for the great chance to win
God bless

Thanks for the chance to win!
Barb M.
I loved school and I still love reading.....
School was my favorite! I have so many fond memories. The biggest thing was the friendships I made through the years! And, also enjoyed most classes...Honestly, if you get a great teacher who loves their job, students will want to learn!

I loved school.. and I hope that dd continues to love it too.
great card and great stamp set.
I loved college! Can't say I loved the rest of it...sorry. My kids, however, LOVE school. Maybe it's the times.

I loved school, especially history! I even went to summer school even though I didn't need to--just wanted to go (weird huh?) Thanks for the chance to win this set....so cute!
I was Home Schooled all 12 years! I liked school but always wondered what it would be like to go to school! lol
I liked going to school for the social interaction. I think if I went back now I could be an "A"
student! Live and learn.
Hola chica... well school wasn't my favorite thing... I was a real social bee and that was the best part for me seeing all my friends and hanging out haha!! oh well I'm being honest.. thanks for the chance to win.. Tu amiga Kat..
Oh yes, I always loved school!
I loved going to school! I guess that's why I became a teacher. 11 years and going strong!
I loved school and I would love to win blog candy.

I absolutely loved going to school. I never EVER missed a day!! ~Diana - juananddiana@msn.com
Fantastic card - love the colors!! What a terrific stamp set - I could get a lot of use out of this. There are so many educators in my family and friends. My mother, my sister and I teach college level, my hubby plans to teach junior high when he retires from the Army, and I have friends that teach kindergarten through 5th! I personally love going to school... can't get enough!
Thanks for the chance at some great blog candy!

I was not crazy about school, but I LOVED college! amystamper3@gmail.com
Wow, this card is so sweet! I really like the layout and the way you showcased this adorable little lady!
Oh, I loved school! It was a great experience! I even married my highschool sweetheart!
I enjoyed school less the older I got! I think my oldest is the opposite!
I didn't love it and I didn't hate it. Just tolerated it. My favoarite classes were art. I was more in to college because I was working toward a specific goal. This set is so darling.
What an adorable card.... I liked school, hanging with my friends,and had some awesome teachers and did pretty well too!!
I loved going to school! Well, except for 2nd grade and 6th grade and that was because my teachers were mean...LOL! Not joking, they really were!
Love the card...so cute!
Very cute card Kimberly.
I loved school until life at home fell apart and then I struggled in school which made learning hard. It wasn't until grade 12 that things changes for me and enjoyed school again. I never went on to university due to fear which is one thing I regret now.
I do all and everything I can to give my children all the support and encouragement they need to keep on loving school.
Thanks for the chance.
School was ok. I was extremely shy..even through High School. I was so shy that I would take a F on oral speeches. That was ok because I was a straight A student and I could sacrifice it. When I tell people how shy I was no one believes me. It took until I was about 23 to really come out of it. But there are still times I feel it roar it's ugly head.
Hello Kimberly,
Your card is beautiful and I love the image. It would be a great set to have. Thanks for the chance to win.
I did not like school at all, now I would love it. I was so shy when I was young and it was harder for me to make friends, but I loved all my grade school teachers.
OH WOW--what an adorable girl!! and I just HAD to click through and see all the new sets SUink has--FUN FUN! Ok, I would just like to say that I went to school to be a teacher and taught special ed in our middle school for a few years. I have 2 girls ages 8 and 9 and am always wanting ideas for teacher cards for their teachers. It's also really sweet to stamp a little 3x3 note and stick it in their lunchboxes. This set would be perfect. =) Thanks for the chance!!
Hi Kimberly! Can't really complain about school. What else are you supposed to do for those years from the time you're five 'til you're twenty-two? Thanks for the blog candy!
love your card! I would love to have this set. I loved school up until college. Then I just loved the whole lifestyle but not going to class. hehe!
I did enjoy school, but was VERY timid, and that put a bit of a damper on my school excitement. Wish I had enjoyed it more at the time.
I would love this set. I was a Kindergarten teacher for 12 years and have returned as a clerk in a K-3 school. Just love those little ones!
That card is adorable....I liked school until I was in high school, then I just wanted to graduate and get outta there...
I actually did like school. I love love love reading and I lucked out with some really great teachers, so I guess I look forward to my HS reunion. :D
No I honestly hated school!!!!!! But now I love it! I am a special education teacher. My students know that I love them and I honestly care about them. I work very hard so that THEY LOVE COMING TO SCHOOL.

Cute card!! I totally loved school....I mostly went to socialize....but loved school. =)
Oh yes, I liked school. I remember my 1st grade teacher got married mid-year, and invited all of the class. OF COURSE I went. I recall sitting in the church, thinking she looked like a princess. I loved her so much!!!! I guess most of the classes were challenging, but not too...What a cute card!
School was great. Not so much math... but everything else...
And love your work!
emil
I really like your card.
Here we have almost month till the school is begin..and in the first of Sep. my daughter will go at first to school...I'm excited
shir
WOW! Great card.
Sooo cute! This set would be perfect for me.. I'm going to getting my teaching degree in a year or so! :) Yippee!
Some days I loved school and others I hated it. We moved a lot so I was always the "new" kid and that was rough. Now I love school every day - I am a Media Specialist and that is the best job in the whole school! IMHO :)
Hi Kimberly
I wasn't a fan of school work when I was young. I loved all the activities. As an adult I went back and got my Bachelor and my MBA and I loved loved loved going to college as an adult and think i got so much more out of the experiance.
Now that I am a parent I find I don't like school so much! I think I liked it better when I was in school. It's too hard now.
Hello Kimberly! School was great - I was the teacher's pet =P or otherwise, known as the geek. Hehe. The greatest thing about school is that I made several wonderful friends whom I am still in contact with after so long. Memories of my schooling days are lovely.
First let me say that I XOXOX your blog!
As for school... I LOVED it!! This year is my 20th high school reunion and if I could go back 20 or so I would have done EVERYTHING school had to offer. I knew I was going to miss it before it was even over! Sick huh?! LOL
Thanks for the op to win some really YUMMY blog candy!
Char in So Cal
I really enjoyed school - probably too much at times! LOL Great card!
I loved school! After high school, I went on to get my BA and then my Masters. Ten years later, I ended up out of my academic field, working in an Elementary School and I couldn't be happier. Great blog candy!
Enjoyed school? Well, not so much back then. Sure miss it now though!
Hope I'm not too late to enter. All things considered, I liked going to school - I really loved learning. My daughter begins preschool in a couple weeks so I would love to own this set! Thanks!
