Welcome to Glenda's Cards!
It is time again for another fun and inspirational Cricut challenge at BBTB2! Our talented design team member Brenda is the hostess for our Back to School challenge. You can use any Cricut cartridge for your card, layout, or project, as long as it is about going back to school! We ask that you mention the name of the Cricut cartridges used for your project in your blog post.
For my project, I decided to do a scrapbook page. Earlier in the year, I received a DCWV Assorted Open Stock paper pack entitled School Days. This page is Foil Learning Tree from that pack. I thought Cricut cuts would accent the cute apple tree and the letters around it which are printed on the designer paper. It is not very noticeable in the photo, but the apples are a red foil paper.
Cricut Cartridges:
Wrap it Up- Page 27 School house card is cut 6.50". While cutting some school house images for an earlier posted project, I cut two cards giving me the extra card for this project.
Nate's ABC's - Page 22 Bus cut 1.50". Page 68 Pencil cut 2.5". Page 49 - Grass is cut 2". The letters A, B, C and numbers 1, 2, 3 are cut at 1".
Celebrate with Flourish - Back to School is cut 2".
Photo of the inside of the card! I will add a photo of my grandson who started the second grade and the journalling later. I do not have the photo yet.
Other supplies: The Paper Studio ribbon...looks like it need ironing!
Transparent photo corners are used on the back part of the schoolhouse card. I did not glue it down on the page.
Versa Magic Gingerbread inking.

Wow Glenda this layout is amazing! I have this paper and might just have to lift this idea from you! I love all the cricut cuts on the page with the tree and I love, love how you placed the picture inside of the school house with a space for journaling, clever!

Glenda this is so awesome. I love how the school house opens and the tree and cuts go perfect together. I may just have to scraplift this since I bought this paper too.
ReplyDeleteGlenda, I never even thought about goodie bags for a "back to school" project but you certainly gave me an idea for next year! Love everything about this project.
