Back to School for Moving Along with the Times

Time for Team A over at Moving Along with the Times to share their next challenge with you all. This month the theme was chosen by Amy.  We'd love to see your creations for Back to School.

I've made my DT card using Stampin' Up!  Labelling Alphabet set and the ever popular owl punch. He's so adorable and very cute just like all the new kids starting back to school soon.

He's standing on a pile of books created with the new Classic Label punch and the 1/2 " circle punch. His page of paper is from the Floral Boutique Designer Series paper and I cut the shape of it using the Project Life Cards and Labels dies.   A sweet little apple for the teacher is from Thoughtful Branches which is now available to purchase, but only during  August while stocks last.

When I first saw the theme of the challenge I was stumped, but the trusty owl has come up with goods.  You can make so many characters with this little chap from teachers to nurses to tulips to ghosts and many more.  If he's not part of your craft supplies he's really a timeless addition to consider.

Please do join our challenge and check out all the other DT cards here.

Happy school day memories to you all.

Stampin' Up! Owl Punch

By Olivia

Just a quick post to share with you the fun card Olivia made for her uncle.  She used tempting turquoise and some cardstock from her stash to put together this special card.  The owl works really well as the zero don't you think!!! Back with more soon.

Make this a great day!

Happy Birthday Gracie!

Today Charlie's at his friend Grace's birthday party.  She's been his friend since they were born, her mum and I were in the same ante-natal class with our first two and then the friendship has continued between us all.  They will be celebrating the party at a falconry centre and so I couldn't resist the urge to use our cute owl punch.  You can turn this little fellow out in all sorts of colours and outfits and all you need in addition is the two step bird punch for his wings.  My bunting is from the Party This Way set and the lettering is Just Perfect Alphabet set which is really useful as it big enough, but small enough if that makes sense.  Balloons are always good for parties and so these are from Crazy for Cupcakes with the sentiment from the same set and I used a marker pen to pick out the parts of the sentiment I required. 

My butterflies from the new Beautiful Embosslit turned out to be perfect to mask a little hiccup, because whether you are a beginner or a little more experienced we all make mistakes, but the beauty of papercrafting is you can usually find a way around those inky finger smudges!!!!!

Have a great party Gracie and you all have a wonderful Sunday!!!!
