Back To School at My Sheri Crafts

It is time for a new challenge at My Sheri Crafts.  And it is all about Back To School.  Now I must admit that this is my least favorite subjuct because I am a teacher of 35+ years and I am know ready to go back to school.  I want my summer to be a little longer.  But I have faced reality and have been working in my classroom for the past two days.

With that being said, I had a difficult time making a project for this challenge.  But now that it is complete, I really like what I did.


The fun papers I used are from We R Memory Keepers.  And The solid papers are from my scraps.  The little schoolhouse and desk are cuts from the Heritage cartridge.  They are inked in brown.  The sentimemt is from a Fiskars Memory stamp set.  I use a little green paper ribbon for some texture and then completed the card with two little red buttons.

Please join us this week with your Back To School project.  Just head on over to My Sheri Crafts and add your project there.  While you are there, check out all the cute projects from our design team.  
Thanks for dropping by.  Please come back soon!!
