Back to School


This is really late for the latest Make my Monday challenge, I have just been so busy covering holidays at work, this is the first chance I have had to put this on.

The theme this time is Back to School.  I think that is easy to see from the card.


I have done quite a simple design. I have used a piece of ordinary school book type paper for the background. I have use a stencil for the ink splats. The ruler is a stamp and coloured with a little distres ink Pumice Stone. I have cut out the stars from a piece of patterned paper. And the words are die cut. A nice quick card for a change for me.
