Back to School

Here are the fun sneek peeks I promised! All stamps are My Favorite Things. This is a mini set called "Back to School" due to be released on August 1st. I love that these stamps are clear, it makes it so easy to create little scenes. I'm sure almost every kindergarden classroom has these peg boards for the kids' backpacks. They are only waist high so the kids can reach them. I used one of the faux ribbons from "setting the stage" for the peg board. I decided to go with the funky fun colors from this amy butler dp. The polkadot corners and the dotted trim around the corner is also a little sneek peek from the "it's elemental" set that is coming too!
Here is another fun teacher card. I created book shelves using "setting the stage" to keep all of the fun little items that come in this set. I love the globe, it's one of my favorites. The large chalkboard is perfect you can put any sentiment you wish on it. This one I used my palette noir ink pad then I embossed the "back to school" in white. There are small flecks of the white on the board too (the chalkboard never comes completely clean...lol!) My background dp is Basic Grey, I thought the green with the numbers on it went really well. Now I'm going off to scout around with what the other girls from the design team came up with, you can check them out under My Favorite Things (The Team).There you have it, day one of the sneek peeks....

cute cards Sherrie! After seeing these headless teachers, I was wondering if the bella heads would fit just in case I needed a change.
