It's Back To School Week here on the Lily Bee blog! Stacey and I are sharing cards that use the August sketch from Cindy and the Back To School theme.
Here is a card from Stacey where she used the sketch and a back to school theme.
It is always fun to scrap using a sketch. Most of the time, I gather inspiration from elements of the sketch as opposed to following one to a tee.
I loved the diagonal line on the sketch and placed mine along the left side of the card. I clustered my circles instead of presenting them horizontally.
Lily Bee goodies such as the Chit Chat stickers and Circle stickers help me build long and meaningful sentiments on my cards.
Supplies:Sweet Shoppe (Paper: Marshmallow; 6X6 Tiny Tablet; Chipboard Stickers, Label Stickers; Embellishment Bundle Button and Twine; Chit Chat Stickers; Circle & Tag Stickers)
Now, here are two cards that I made for today's theme and challenge.
To me, back to school means primary colors, numbers and a time to celebrate getting back into a routine. My son is in elementary school, so I love that I can still keep it pretty basic for him for back to school. I'll have to get more creative once he's older. I think these cards would make a great lunchbox note or even a "hello" note for his bus driver or teacher.
I used the positives and the negatives from one cut for my numbers. Cut once = two cards! You can download my numbers studio file HERE if you would like to use it for yourself.
I used the 6x6 Tiny Tablets for all of the pattern papers. They work out great for cutting on the Cameo because you can fit them into each corner of the cutting mat. Move the 1, 2 and 3 into the corners and one cut gets you all 3 patterns done.
Supplies: Pinwheel (6x6 Tiny Tablet) and Sweet Shoppe(6x6 Tiny Tablet).
These are beautiful! LOVING the colors and the sequins!!
