Back to School

 Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

School has started in our area. Where did the summer go? I have been playing with a school theme card. Card measures 6" x 6" and is cut from white Colorbok cardstock. The background paper is from a Mary E. Co. paper pack which I have had for a couple of years. A, B, C and 1, 2, 3 are printed on the border of the paper with the apples. I am not sure if you can see that very well..my camera was misbehaving!

Cricut Cartridges:
3 Birds on Parade - School Days is cut 2.84" wide 1.27" high.
Create a Friend - #1 teacher is cut 3.50" wide.
Walk in My Garden - Sunflowers. This cut is the sunflower on the stem but I cut off the stem. This is one of the earlier cartridges that I bought.
Plantin Schoolbook - Using the Text Box, 1,2,3 and A, B, C were cut .50" high.

Sunflowers are pop-dotted on the card. A piece of  measure tape trim was used for the bow.
