I can’t believe that it is September. I had such big plans to craft, blog and make videos more often over the summer. A couple of big home improvement projects really ate up the summer. Alas, they were worth the time I spent doing them and they are almost done.
I will definitely share pictures of those projects when we have a chance to put the finishing touches on them!
Also…tomorrow is my last first day of school! The countdown to retirement has begun. I love the beginning of the school year and I’m delighted that I get to do it this one last time. I’m looking forward to meeting my new students and showing them the joy of learning science.
I made a quick card again today. This time I kept it simple by using a fabulous piece of patterned paper for my background. I also used a piece of ribbon, which I haven’t done in ages. All that ribbon has been sitting neglected on my shelf.
This paper came in the September Simon Says Stamp card kit. I loved how it had that pink grunge look in the background. It just gave a hint of color which I added to with a variety of pink sequins just for fun.
The layout uses this weeks Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge along with a sentiment from Altenew’s Wavy Roses stamp set.
As I added the sketch, I realized that I forgot to add the black scalloped lace border that I pulled out of my stash. So picture that on my card to complete the sketch!
Maybe that will go on the next card I make!
Thanks for stopping by today. Sorry for such a short post, but I’ve got 2 lessons to finish and my Google Classrooms to set up!
Have a wonderful day!
