Susan's Pick:

No. 2 - Tammy A.

Susan's Thoughts: This is a gorgeous creation! I love all the distressed edges. I always love that look. I think something simple like that just adds so much! And then the inking with it just adds so much more. Love that! I love all the die cut elements too. They turned out really great. And then there is that perfect little definition at the bottom that really makes me relate. Yep.. I have teenagers and I believe that they think that is the true meaning of studying LOL! Absolutely wonderful project! Love everything about it. Love all the details and little pieces that you have added to make this a masterpiece! Thank you so much for joining in! Great inspiration for us all!
