CC338.....Sweet School Days


Good Tuesday Morning Peeps!!

Today I am sharing my card sample made for the Color Challenge this week on Splitcoaststampers. The colors today are Real Red, Night of Navy and Daffodil Delight. I used the neutral of Very Vanilla. This week the dessert option is "back to school' - think kid stamps, backpacks, lined paper, apples, pencils, books, rulers etc!

I went a bit over board on the "back to school" theme! LOL! The base of my card is Night of Navy card stock. The DSP on here is from a retired Stampin Up pack, I think "Newsprint". I used my spiral edge punch down one side of the DSP.




I used on of my favorite Stampin' Up stamp sets called "Greeting Card Kids". I stamped the school kids image onto some very vanilla card stock with black stazon. I colored them in with my aqua painter and my ink pads. I matted this piece with real red card stock and pierced all around the edges with using my piercing tool and matt pack. I cut a Night of Navy piece of card stock the same size as my image piece and embossed it with the Stripes EF.
I made my Pencil with some Daffodil Delight card stock. I first printed out my sentiment directly onto the card stock. I then made the tip with some crumb cake and basic black card stock. I added a bit of blush blossom card stock to the top for the eraser. I then used a MS punch to make the apple with some red glitter paper. The ABC's are cut with the Naturally Serif die. I finished it off with a silver clip.

Well, that is all from me today, thanks for stopping by and HAPPY STAMPING!!!
