Back to school

Hi everyone,

I have been a little MIA lately. Have a lot going on. My daughter just moved to Hawaii to start a new life with her fiance and we are having work done at the house. New front stairs and a new walkway to be precise. My garden has taken a bit of a beating but there's always next year. It will all be worth it to see the finished job.

Anyways I do have a card to share for the Wednesday challenge at Simon Says Stamp where the theme is 'Back to School'. Details here.

Here's my card.

I started by creating the blackboard base to my card. I rubbed white ink over the black piece of cardstock to make it look like eraser marks then added a strip of metallic silver washi tape to the top and bottom of the piece and added it to my card.

The clipboard was actually cut from a 12x12 piece of Doodlebug paper called Take Note

I stamped the 5 sentiments and the Be die from Simon Says Stamp was die cut with black fun foam.

The little birdie was stamped and die cut using Lawn Fawn products.

The Mom's Notes sentiment was stamped using a Stampendous stamp set.

I added some glossy accents to the Be, some gold star embellishments and 2 pieces of Lawn Fawn twine in black and yellow.

Well that's it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by.
