Back to School!

Happy Wednesday, y'all!! Hope everyone is staying cool and hydrated in this heat! OUCH it's hot!

Today, 7 Kids has another challenge for you! This week's challenge is:

Back to School!

It's almost that time of year (silently saying yay!!) and I wanted to make a quick teacher gift and card.

I used Shy Kiki LaRue from CC Designs for my card. Something about her clothes just screams school! I decided to make a matching Post-It Note Holder to go with my card. These are super-simple to make using a binder clip, some cardstock, ribbon, post-it notes and a coaster. I used SU cardstock and Paper Studio DP.

I used these Nesties to cut her out. I used Copics to color Kiki and blue ink to distress the edges of the stamped image.

Supplies:
Stamps - Shy KikiLaRue, Sentiment (PTI)
Paper - Paper Studio DP, SU cardstock,
Ink - Memento, Copics
Accessories - Nestabilities, Post it note, coaster, binder clip, ribbon, buttonm star punch

Back 2 School

Yup! It's almost that time of year!! The kiddos go back to school soon and I can honestly say, I am ready for a little break from having 3 kids at home all of the time.

Today, Pink Cat Studio has some awesome new Back To School Themed Digi's available today!!

This is Back To School Billy - isn't he too cute? He has all of his supplies and even an apple for teacher! I printed him on PTI paper and colored him with Copics. I then sponged some Brilliant Blue around the image. It is hard to tell, but I added some Glossy Accents to the apple and the front of his lunchbox. The papers I used are: Blue (Bazzill), Riding Hood Red, More Mustard and some KI Memories School Days DP. I used an oval paper clip from MM and some Night of Navy Ribbon from SU. The edge punch is also from SU as well as the tag punches. I printed the sentiment on my pc. Here are all of the cute School Digi's available and there is even one free if you purchase images today!!
