Starting School

I have thought hard about this and have come up with this card to combine the Simon Says Stamp School Days challenge and the Cute Card Thursday New Beginnings challenge. My baby (well the older baby!!) starts school next Thursday and I had intrended on doing a scrap page, but then thought a card would be nice for her to have. I have searched my stamp collection, and to b e honest this is the nearest to a school image I come ... but I have used the school uniform colours so I hope it counts!
I love this Manga girl's attitude ... so like Ellie. I coloured her using promarkers and the uniform Ellie will wear is blue, grey and gold. I used coredinations cardstock and cut the mats using my nesties. Two are embossed in the Morrocan embossing folder and the other 2 using the writing folder. I took a huge deep breathe and cut into my Bo Bunny ribbon (it is only for stroking!!) and then added a Prima flower which I coloured using a promarker so it matched.

We are off to York for the weekend ... hopefully it won't be too wet, then up to see the grandparents before the big day!! I just need to sew all her name labels in her clothes (yawn!!!).
Have a great weekend what ever you are doing.
