Crafting Vicky

Hello everyone!  It's my turn to host the blog over at Art by Mi Ran !  This time around our theme for the month is Back to school. Again I decided for my make to use an image that you would not necessarily think of using but once you hear the story behind the choice you will agree I think. I was a border student for my 1st year of Highschool so the idea of the little suitcase reminded me of this!  So that's why for my card I used the awesome  Travelling Torrie So here's what I have made with her :)  I went with a blue color pattern. 

This week at  Jacksons digital expressions  our challenge is hosted by the CAS theme and we ask that you use lace and/or pearls in your design.  Our wonderful sponsor this week is: For my 1st card... I messed up and used the old schedule... so went with inches... but I really liked how it turned out and decided to still show it to you guys.  I used the Lil Back to School from Robert Jackson. The paper comes from My mind's eye - Lime Twist - Out of the blue.  I also used some cardstocks from Recollections that I purchased at Michael's.  I used Sizzix embossing on it.  I was soooo happy to find a way to use this embossing folder :D I used Label 22 to cut the digi and cardstock out and colored this sweet little girl with my copics. The sentiment comes from  Create with TLC .  It's Ticket back to school and was part of the wonderful club that I had joined!  When she does clubs you really should join... you really get a to...
