Lacy Sunshine gets Kids ready for School-A new Challenge! Anything goes!

Well Bubbles goes to Fairy School is such a great digital image from Lacy Sunshine for this time of year.  As parents everywhere get their youngsters off to the buses, into the carpools so they won't be late, the air gets a little cooler and soon the leaves will begin to color.  It's FALL!! Yea, my favorite time of the year.
This challenge is all about the season and school, or if you like, Anything Goes.  When I first saw this image, I thought of school uniforms so that's what I designed her clothing around.  Also that theme is reflected in the plaid background.  Then there was no question about using this pencil paper called "Making the Grade"!  I have this great die cut that looks like torn out notebook paper when it's punched-can you tell it was all coming together on this 6 x 6" card?
Inside I used the other side of the pencil paper and it looks like equations all over the creamy paper.  The notebook lines paper is actually from a 12 x 12" scrapbook paper!  Perfect!  And to top it all off, an encouraging sentiment!
We would LOVE to see all your creations so that we can share ideas.  Please join us for this 2 week challenge and come back often!

Time to use Twine, Ribbon, Floss on the Challenge at Squigglefly

 This week at Squigglefly they would like us to use the 3 mediums that I listed in the heading--Ribbon, Floss or Twine.  Well, I chose to use a "ribbon" of raffia.  What with fall coming on shortly and kids going back to school, I thought it was a great chance to make an encouraging card for a little girl returning to school!  I love the look of Raffia on a card-makes it so down-homey!  This image is called digi pencil girl without glasses by Cheryl Alger, one of the many talented artists that you will find in the SF Shop.  I colored her with copics, double matted her and then attached the raffia ribbon and raffia bow with button attached.

Well, I had another image by Cheryl Alger called No. 2 pencil with Dream  so I created another card for the occasion.  You'll find SO many images at the Squigglefly Store by this wonderful Artist-can you tell she's one of my favorites?  Do know why the silver pen I used showed up so well on one picture and not on the other!    I wanted to use the yellow glittered circle brad as the Sun on the page and the flower petals are the sun rays.  I picked up some blue and white Baker's Twine as an accent on the end of the card.  Thanks for taking a look at my creations.  Come and play along with our latest challenge and check us out each week for a chance to win some free digital images!
