K, WELL...
I hope you had beautiful weather to enjoy today...it was wonderful here in UT.
Here are 2 sneaks to my May stamp set called "Making The Grade" This set works well for fall, young and old kids, graduations, teacher's appreciation...and more :)
I will take a larger photo of this tomorrow...oopse :) The tree is actually perfectly vertical, but I bent the stamp on my acrylic block to add charecter. The 2 sentiments and crayon is from the set as well. I added a graph backgrounder, some Beaux Regards ribbon, Core'dinations card stock and Fancy Pants paper. Stazon and Clearsnap ink, Fiskars punch too.
*Tip This would make a great gift bag for a child entering into school, whether it's Pre K, Kindergarten or any other Elementary grade, this would be so cute to fill with school supplies, lunch or a sweet gift*
The ruler, pencil and apple are within' the "Making The Grade" set. Making Memories paper, Stazon and Clearsnap ink. Waxy Flax and Core'dinations card stock for the base. The ruler is stamped onto the patterned paper while the other accents are on cut and inked paper.
*Tip add color to only one accent to add interest*
*FF There is a rare condition called Exploding Head Syndrome, which you have probably never heard of* (funny, I thought I had this many times...oh' right, my head doesn't actually explode though...hope I never catch that!)
I hope you will join me tomorrow for another Monday challenge :)


Absolutely delish!!! So cute.
