Back to School Scrap Challenge


Today is Wednesday and that means the scraps challenge over at Scrappily Ever After. Of course this is "Back to School" month there so here is another view of a similar card. This is 1,2,3 vs the ABC and the pattern is reversed. The stem is on the left because I got a grease mark on one side and it needed to be covered. *grin

I did line the inside in white cardstock for better writing ability. The stitching is faux done with a paper piercer and a white gel pen. I made a number of these because they were so simple for OWH. Next time I might change the pattern some at the top where the fold is for more stability. It is only attached on one piece of the top stem. I got the pattern from The Craft Room. Once I start getting good enough I might be able to create some patterns on my own. For now I've got tons of good material.

Tune in tomorrow for an explanation of how to convert SVG files to WPC. I could not find this information on the web so that is why I really wanted to share it. It also came from The Craft Room.

Thanks for checking in.

  1. I love anything with apples, this is wonderful. I don't have any of the programs that will weld but I might have to "lift" this idea. Great work!
