Challenge #395 - Back to School - The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, wow this Summer holiday has flown by in less that probably a week the children will be returning to School for their Autumn Term, like many of them my hubbys granddaughter who turned 11 in August she will be starting her Secondary School and my card is a way of wishing her good luck and hoping she will enjoy her time there, so the theme this week is

Back to School

as you can image this is mainly a theme to cover those that are going or starting new School but if you havent anyone in your family doing so instead maybe they are starting College or even University so perhaps we can stretch this to cover this as well.

And you will find some beautiful images over at The Paper Shelter and there's lot to choose from to. Our Sponsors are and as always our sponsers are The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website.

But don't forget they will only give you the whole amount if you have used one of their images on your card but don't worry if you haven't, they will still give you 3 digi images or your own choice if you are picked as a winner.

For this weeks card I have used this image

   

I printed this image "Ready for School" and you will find it here, onto white card and coloured her with my copic pens, afterwards I used a rectangle die to cut her out and a fancy one with the blue card to create a mount for it. The sentiment is one from my stash and has been stamped and mounted onto another piece of the same blue card.

For the base card I used a white 6.50"x 6.50" card with a first mount a piece of the same blue card as used on the image and sentiment, on top of this is the backing paper that came with the image and you will find it here. 

After placing the BP on the base card I positioned the mounted image in the center with the sentiment in the bottom right hand corner, and to finish of I used several science buttons around the image.

Now that you've seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot to see what the rest of the Design Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you will want to take part in this "Back to School" Challenge to.

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, well we are back after a three week break, I sincerely hope you didnt miss us to much and still took part in our Anything Goes Challenge, anyway we are back and ready to get started in a new season of Challenges and this weeks theme is

Punches and Dies

For this weeks card I have used this image

   

This young lady is titled "Trekking Girl" you will find her here, and I thought this image was ideal for my eldest daughter who loves being outdoors, either jogging or walking, as she now lives in Indonesia she has lots of opportunity to do both.

I printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used a rectangle die to cut her out and a fancy one for the mount out of green card. 

The base card is a 6.50"x6.50" white card with a first mount out of green card the backing paper is also from the same design set as the image and you will find it here. The sentiment is a stamp from my stash and has also been mounted on a piece of green card and placed in the bottom right hand corner.

I then placed my mounted image in the middle of the card, and in the top two corners I have used some punched out butterflies in green card and then placed some gems along the folded edge.

Now that you've seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot to see what the rest of the Design Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you will want to take part in this "Punches and Dies" Challenge to.
