Hey everyone! I'm sharing my Ribbon Carousel card for this month today. Our theme this month is back to school, so I thought i would make a chalkboard card.
I used There She Goes Cutie Pi set, one of my very favorite from them.
Some woodgrain cardstock was used for the frame, and I added some red ribbon from Michael's for a great pop of color.
This came together so quickly. I love how easy the chalkboard style is. Normally this image would take me forever as I'm not the world's greatest colorer, and piecing is time consuming, but this I can do, and the fact is the chalkboard effect is really forgiving because it is supposed to be a little messy/off center.
Hope that you can play along this month. One random participant will win a Ribbon Carousel!
I'm also going to link this up over at CASual Fridays since they have a back to school challenge too. :)
