Good Morning everyone, i hope you had a good weekend.
Its time for a new challenge over at Make My Monday
The Theme this fortnight is:
BACK TO SCHOOL
I Must admit this is the first ever back to school card ive made, my little niece Lizzy is starting school for the first time next month which is a bit scary - they are growing up fast. Not really having much in my stash, i made it with my niece Sophie in mind, she loves arts and crafts and writing at school.
In my graphics programme i designed a piece of lined paper and added the back to school and have fun sentiments with an old typewriter type font. I then torn around the edges. I added this to a black A5 cardbase.
From scraps of brusho card i die cut some ink splats, from white card i die cut the pen, paint brush, scissors & ink bottle and coloured them with alcohol pens, black for the handles. They are a sizzix sizzlet die set i was kindly given quite a while ago. I arranged them around my ink splats with a bit of twine/string. Enamel drops to finish.
Close up, i used glossy accents on the bottle
Items Used:
Sizzix dies 'sewing & writing set' 657752
Ink splat dies
Viva paper pens
Alcohol markers
Glossy accents
Brusho's
So if you fancy joning in and just seeing what everyone comes up with for back to school, please do hop over to mmm
Well today my little nieces are coming down to spend the day with me so that will be fun and hectic im sure, they are growing up fast. I hope you all have a good week. Ive also added a page to my header bar of the beautiful birthday cards i got if you fancy a peek. Emma
