Please scroll down for my 12 Kits of Christmas post!
Hello there!
Just zooming by with this week's new challenge at CAS-ual Fridays! This week's theme is Top of the Class, and we want to see your clean and simple back to school creation.
We have another fantastic sponsor this week: it's Pretty Paper Studio! They've offered up a generous prize for our winner this week. Thanks, Pretty Paper Studio!
There are lots of exciting announcements and teasers on the CAS-ual Fridays blog today, but you'll have to hop over there to read for yourself. ;) All I can say is that we have a fabulous new Girl Friday joining us this week, and I'm thrilled to have her on the team.
My card is super easy and straight-forward, so I'll keep this brief. :)
I stamped the pencil image from Paper Smooches' Smarty Pants repeatedly in Basic Gray ink, adding one in black ink and facing the opposite direction. I colored it with Copics, added a stitched border, and put the panel on a red card base.
The sentiment, also from Paper Smooches, was stamped onto a red banner, trimmed, and added with foam tape.
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Pure Poppy), WPlus9 Design Studio (White)
Stamps: Paper Smooches (Smarty Pants, Sentiment Sampler)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Basic Gray), Memento (Tuxedo Black), Copic markers
Tools: Papertrey Ink (banner die)
Accessories: thread
Thanks for your visit today!

Such a great CAS card Christina, love that you only colored the one pencil.
Sweet. Thanks for your sweet luv. Hugs
I love the bold difference between the black and colored pencil vs. the gray ones, especially love the direction change!
I popped by for the 12 kits but so glad I caught this - what a clever card.. love how the one pencil is colored in - everything is stamped perfectly (why can't I do this?) Perfect back to school card!
This card is SO special, Christina! Love the colors and placement of the images! You are one special and amazing stamping artist!
Love this! Love the lone pencil!
Fun card, the yellow pencil really pops! (Did you get the email I sent with changes a while back? I know you've been busy...)
Christina, you touch those PS stamps and they take on a whole new awesome life! I love this!!!
I'm so enjoying what you're doing with Paper Smooches stamps! This is so much fun! I love the way you've varied the direction and colour of your focal point - it makes a great impact!
Christina I love this pencil stamp. It looks fantastic on your card.
Super-straight stamping with that pencil, Christina! Lovely message too.
