ART Challenge #9 -- School Theme

Thursday, August 8, 2013

School -- that's the focus of this week's challenge at A.R.T. Create a card with a school theme and link it up here.  

I thought this was the perfect opportunity to break out my large apple die from MFT.  And the book print impression plate from PTI is just the right touch.  I'll give this to one of the kids' teachers later this year.
I'm also entering this into the following challenges.
  Papertake Weekly -- anything goes
  Loves Rubber Stamps -- anything goes
  Through the Craftroom Door  -- anything goes
  Craftin Desert Diva's Linky Party -- back to school
  The Crazy Challenge -- anything goes

Great card, Alanna. That background piece adds a lot of nice texture and interest. I also like the apple, especially the detail in the leaf. You find some neat products to use on your cards, that is for sure!
