A challenge this month to the design team at Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker was to create a "back to school" related project. All of the teams projects were posted today on the Nikki Sivils blog so be sure to take a peek.
I had just received my new Better Homes and Gardens magazine and they listed some templates and ideas that were online with access to crafters and I knew this really cute and clever accordian style apple card would work for my creation. Here is a link to this template and you just might find other things there to use too.
I pulled out my Henry's Brilliance papers and die cuts for my card. The base is cut from Core'dinations cardstock. The apple shaped patterned paper pieces are inked with a Fluid Chalk stamp pad.
And for even more goodness, the Core'dinations blog is featuring the BRAND NEW Stacy Julian Core Impressions cardstocks that were released at summer CHA. I wanted to share one of my projects, a layout where I used a piece of blue with swiss dot embossing and a piece of yellow that has embossed words in it. The words are repeated on one piece of paper in little blocks so they were perfect to use as accents to these adorable photos of our youngest grandson with some pretty BIG smiles. The patterned paper is Jillibean Soup.
