Challenge #259-Back to School

Welcome to another Challenge Me Monday...



Challenge #259 Back to School
Make a project featuring school related activities or teachers!

This Weeks Sponsor:



To qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you used. If you use a Cricut Explore machine, at least one cut must be from the Cricut catalog of images.

And, if you submit a project in our challenge that isn't a card, you will get two entries for a chance to win the prize instead of one!

Here is my project-

I just love this two sided paper! It's a DJ Inkers paper I've had forever. Perfect for a Back to School Card! The teacher is made with scraps from the Create a Friend cartridge, along with the apple. Plantin Schoolbook cartridge made the A+ from scraps, and Artiste Cartridge made the sentiment square, along with the Artiste stamps. I used the Twinery blue and white twine to get the sentiment square mounted. Easy Peasy!

Thanks for looking, and be sure to submit a project for a chance to win the SVG Attic gift certificate!
