Today is Thursday and that means it is time for another weekly TREEHOUSE THURSDAY CHALLENGE # 061 - Back To School. This week I was asked to select a challenge and since my oldest daughter did not want to be reminded that school in her county starts back this week what other challenge could there be. I love to rub it in. She has been goofing off all summer while I worked and now once again we are equal. LOL.
For this challenge I used a sheet of dp I just bought at Michaels from DCWV called School Days. My focal image is from a set released last month from TREEHOUSE STAMPS DIGITAL LINE called "Back To School". I colored with copics then attached some google eyes to the worm, layered my focal image on some red and then green cs. I used my ticket corner punch on the main panel and punched some yellow circles for faux brads. I tied 2 ribbons together and popped up my focal panel.
So I never expected the challenge to be posted this early in the morning but it was. Thanks Faith for guest hosting for Julia. So this is also for today's WAYS TO USE IT CHALLENGE # 282 - Stick It. Now I love the way a sentiment looks underlined with paper piercing I just don't ever think to do that so thanks Faith for the kickin' reminder to do something that I love the look of. It really can add to the outcome of your card and puts an emphasis on the sentiment as well.
Hope you like it.
