Comment: HI Polly and I love this little back to school rolo! Both the front and the back. The little children's images are so sweet and make me think of the reading books I had when I was in grade school - very nostalgic. Love the other little elements that you added too. And thank you so much for the extra goodies - always love to add new things to my craft stash!

Comment: So happy to receive a swap from you, dear Polly :)! Already the lovely, decorated envelope was a delight to spot amongst the other, dull mail and love everything that was inside; the cute sewn pocket with the pretty rolo and all the lovely bits and bobs (clusters, are they?). Thank you so much for every detailed thing, as beautiful as always.
