My Favorite Things Summer School - Rule of Thirds

I think this is a fantastic idea from the My Favorite Things blog to have a summer school with a lesson each day.  When you submit your homework, you might even win a prize.

For day one, it was The Rule of Thirds which is a great tool that may help you decide the placement and design of your card.  My example is very straight forward and basic, but I feel the card is balanced.  I used the dies from Geek is Chic to emboss the paper as a focal background.  The saying is also from the matching stamp set Geek is Chic.  The googly eyes were a last minute idea, but they always make me laugh.  You cannot see, but in the corner of the glasses are two small red hearts. What is a love card without a heart?

I also took the suggestion and made a grid for the A2 size card from vellum paper.  This will be a great guide when working on the design.
