Today’s Challenge

Today’s SplitCoastStamper challenge was an interesting one – we were only allowed to use numbers on our card, not any words or letters.  Most of the posts were for number birthdays and anniversaries, but I came up with a different idea…

I made this teacher appreciation card:

The inside will say, “Who do we appreciate?  YOU!”.

I used black cardstock as the chalkboard then stamped the numbers with white craft ink.  I rubbed over them with white chalk and a sponge to make it look even more like a chalkboard.  I added wood grain patterned paper to act as a frame, then stamped, colored and cut out school images from an old retired Stampin’ Up! set, It’s Academic.  I popped up the images for dimension and added a few ribbons – I like how this turned out!

I have an idea for another number card…I hope to get to it this afternoon…
