School card



Have tried to get a side view and curled the pages so you can see them better of the 'apple book'this morning.
When I saw that this weeks challenge At CAsology  my heart and my jaw dropped - ladies I had been looking forward to a WHOLE day crafting had cleared the decks (all done yesterday and tough if it wasn't) but by the time I had tried a few things last night,this morning and well into the afternoon and finally this evening ,I threw my hands up and decided that this would just have to do :-) -  but I suppose it wouldn't  be a challenge if it was easy ..... but how about a nice easy one next week cos I'll be back to school next week Pleeease!!!!

     Of course I didn't have an apple stamp so had to draw it,wanted the apple  to look like a book so layered it up but unfortunately the camera hasn't picked that up there is a little bit of white at the edges that are the pages -honest
Found the little poem and the book worm/ caterpiller on the web ,drew some lines to look like jotter pages  and stamped the alphabet background with a SU stamp.
                                 Thanks for looking x

  6. Good job, Jenni! You are too hard on yourself. Your hand-drawn apple is amazing - I certainly never think to do something like that, so I'm uber impressed!!

  7. You said about how much effort I put into my work, what about you??? I think you've done a wonderful job here and I'm like you, I don't give in even if it's driving me mad!! I love your apple and the fact that it has pages makes it even more special. The alphabet background was an inspired choice. I was out with some teacher friends yesterday and they're already moaning that over half of their holiday has gone - how I remember that awful summer holiday feeling!! Have fun whilst you can!!
