BACK TO SCHOOL

Teal is my favorite colour and I love the papers in this pack! I think I am going to have to get another one of these! 


I love this  Blueprints 17 Die set from My Favorite Things, just perfect for all things 'Back to School'! I used Frosted Crystal Embossing Powder, as suggested by Tim Holtz as being the best powder for creating a chalkboard effect, I have to agree with him ;-) he is GOOD didn't he!! ;-)

This is the inside


I wanted to make a more girly version too and I was going to do 'B' for Ball but then I already had this super cute pupster out on my desk and went with 'D'. When I showed it to my hubby, he just laughed and said who are you going to give that to. he thought it was a Donkey!! LOL I suppose he does have a point haha :-)
