Hey everyone! I hope that you are all enjoying these last days of summer! I know many kids are already headed back to school, and mine will be heading back next week, so the timing was just right to work on this "back to school" guest blog post with our fine friends over at Simon Says Stamp! I had a lot of fun working up some ideas for back to school, plus it got me into action on making something special for my little ones! Here are a couple of sneak peeks of what you'll see over on the Simon Says Stamp blog!

The back to school customized bags are so cute! As a room mom this year I think these would be great to give out to the kids.

The bag toppers are such a cute idea. I loved looking at them. I wonder if I can make the picture bigger so I can see them better?
