Back to School (Again)

Help!!! Has anyone else lost their Reading List? I can't get mine either on my pc or IPad - is Mr Blogger up to his usual tricks or is just me????

Hello and its time for another challenge over at The Paper Shelter where the theme this week is Back to School. Here is my card:

I have used the fab Vintage Teacher which is available here to purchase. All of the images at The Paper Shelter come in both coloured and plain form for you to colour as well as some backing papers for your project. I coloured her with my Copics and then used Pierced Rectangle Stax by Dienamics to cut her out and matted her using Cheery Lynn.  The digital papers are from The Sweet Shoppe called Hometown Proud.  I used a Waltzingmouse stamp for the sentiment cutting it out with a Marianne banner.  The fishtail banners were made with Dienamics Stax and I coloured the pearls to match with my Copics.

Here is a side view:

As usual there is a fabulous prize for the lucky winner:

Back to School with Crafty Sentiments

Hello there and thank you so much for visiting me.  I hope your week has got off to a good start.  Today at Crafty Sentiments we have a new challenge starting and the theme is - Back to School (deja vu).  Here is my card:

I have used Meeting Friends from Crafty Sentiments available here and she has been coloured with my Copics. The papers are DDE Because I'm Happy.  I fussy cut her out and then placed her on an SB Oval which had been embossed with a circles embossing folder but I don't think you can really see that.  I used Dienamics Notebook Edge and also their Double Scallop Border.  The little ruler is Maya Road which I coloured with my Copics.

We have a fabulous prize up for grabs this week:

Please go over to the Crafty Sentiments challenge for all the details and to see the rest of the DT work.

Thank you so much for looking! Sorry this is short and sweet but I have dashed up to do it and left Rowan playing on his mat in the lounge with Dave. Hugs to you all, take care xx
