I know I'm not as skilled as my sister or my daughters with card making, but my grandchildren don't seem to mind. No, the inside does NOT say, "a handful. . . ."
That never even crossed my mind---I always intended it to say "hand-some!"
OK, the hearts above are added to hide the tear marks because I couldn't get the "N"s placed quite right.
But, come on---don't I get points for creatively using my alphabet stickers?
Yeeees, I ran out of room for the "g" and decided to use the apostrophe. . .
Actually, I think Eli's is the best one from an artistic stand-point.
No, I don't think Libby is "into" texting, but I thought maybe she could recognize the letters and number.
Libby's was my first one I made---I hadn't gotten the creative juices up to speed yet.
I came up with this for Davis. . .well, because Davis loves the word "toot". So, looking through my stickers for a horn, I found all of these German stickers and the pretzel alphabet. . .just lucky, I guess.
I'm a little embarrassed about Brett's which is why it is last. Using all of the animal stickers seemed like a good idea---then I added the snakes. . .
but, I think the message got lost with all the animals covering the letters. Then, the heart wasn't big enough, so I thought I'd draw a bigger one. . . .
I am just hoping my grandchildren cherish Grandma's attempts at art and can smile some day like I do with the note below from my grandparents on a Valentine "Hope you look over the spelling." It couldn't have been easy for my grandparents to send a note to their granddaughter the English major, but I cherish their notes---mispelled words and all.

I never laughed so hard in my whole life! My sides hurt so bad and I just cannot stop laughing! The tears are just rolling down my face and I can hardly get my breath. Breath taking!
This tops anything Louise ever said or did. This is totally a Jaci original that absolutely anything else you ever do will be compared to. A total Jaci classic moment.
You know I don't that I could ever in my life get this creative. This is the only thing that has topped a school picture of you in an Easter egg for a prize.
