Business Cards 1st Grade Style

Today is the day the little ones arrived for their first day of first grade...something they'd been waiting for all their lives of course.  In honor of such a momentous occasion, each one took home personalized business cards as a sign that they had finally arrived.  They are now official first graders, which happens to be a very important job.  


(They're much cuter in person without the blurred out parts.)

Since there's only so much time for cutting such things at this time of year, they only got 10 cards each, but at least they're on cardstock for better durability.


The kids thought they were pretty special.  I'm fairly certain they'll enjoy sharing them with the special people in their lives, or possibly they'll just hoard them forever, which is also okay.
