It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players!
I am the hostess and I have a fun theme challenge for all of you! It's "Back To School" time and we can't wait to see what you create! We have already been in school for a month in Georgia, but most places go back to school after Labor Day. There is always someone to make a card or project for: a teacher, a student, a bus driver, coach, school employee or even a volunteer! Have fun and get creative!
My card is created on a white card base. I added a piece of patterned paper cut using the SugarPea Designs Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle Dies. I stamped the sentiment in black on a white rectangle using the SugarPea Designs Read Between the Lines stamp set. I mounted the sentiment on black card stock. The glasses were cut in red, yellow and blue card stock using the Brainy Bookmarks die by SugarPea Designs. I added Glossy Accents on the lenses to make them shiny. I used a banner punch from Stampin' Up! to create all the banners. I added a black enamel dot on each one. This card can be given to a teacher, a student, a librarian or any one that loves reading!
