Back to School

Hi Everyone,

Well, my youngest niece is moving in this weekend to her dorm for her freshman year in college, so I decided to get a jump on the card that will be in her care package.  Now I just need to get stuff for the actual package :)

This Teacher Tools image from DRS Designs with its elementary school look was a great throwback image for the card today.  I chose primary colors for the color palette, which echos the theme of the stamp itself and the Lines O Plenty made a great textured background. Since I liked the apple in the image, I chose to do the spotlight technique, and really highlighted it by adding some Stickles.

I completed it with the Vertical Thinking of You stamped in black.

Would you like a chance at winning a voucher to the DRS Designs store?  They are the sponsor this week at Card Patterns, and all you have to do it link up your card using the sketch below for your chance to win.

Have a great day!
