Time 4 Class

Hie my bloggie friends and Happy Hump Day.  I'm glad to say that from two days of predicted stormy weather we only had one and it wasn't that bad.  I am here with my 5th school card.  I thought I had run out of ideas but I started thinking about the old cartoons(my fave) and how they put the kids in the corner of the class room and the wheels started turning.  I really wanted a desk but I didn't have the cut and time was limited.  I used Playtime cart., doing some alterations to create a faceless little boy.  I hand cut a face and added it to the blackout cut.  I then added a Peachy Keen face(PK-573) with some Pebbles chalk for the cheeks.  For the frame I used MS Seasonal cart.  The card is a sketch for a challenge.  I also hand cut the banners, chalkboard & chalk.  I used a white gel pen(Signo), ribbon (Oriental Trading) from my stash.  I finished it with a Cuttlebug embossing folder & Tim Holtz folder which is the 1st time in use.  I just love those clocks and embossing.   Had so much fun1  Thanks for joining me.

  2. Cute! A great way to use that little boy! I have that cart, too, and haven't used him yet--thought it would be kinda mean to scrap a page of my little boy pouting! But you came up with a great idea! I might copy you!

    Thanks for sharing it with us!
