This was a fun card to make even if it did take me three tries!
It's all pretty much how it looks, the one thing that may not show well in the photo is that I chalked the black oval to make it look like an old blackboard. I used a Sakura Souffle pen to write on it. The embellishment is a from a sticker pack.
I printed out the banner words on the computer, cut them out and embellished them with apples cut from the same matstack as the bg frame. I coated the apples with Glossy Accents for shine. And of course, dimensionals and mounting tape made the honor roll!

Using this theme for this sketch was such a great idea! Love how you added text to the small features, and the writing tools to the sentiment bar. Obviously a more open mind when it comes to filling in the elements - I'm jealous of that. Thanks for playing and posting!

So sweet Jody, your papers are adorable, but those shiny apples are the cherry on top!

Love the chalkboard look, and glad you worked those apples in for my challenge, too! Thanks for joining in (and sorry to be so late commenting! Life just gets in the way!)
