It's that time of year again...when the kids head back to school. The challenge at Crafty Sentiments Challenge Blog this week is BACK TO SCHOOL. And how appropriate is this...I'm using the image named Back to School from Crafty Sentiments!
His denim jeans are nice and new for the first week of school. I used three Scrabble game pieces and 2 buttons for my embellishments. For the Alphabet Challenge, I thought my natural wood Scrabble pieces met the challenge of "N" for Natural. The paper is from my stash. Boy cards are certainly a challenge since I had to put away all my lace, ribbons and flowers! Here's a close up of this tyke headed to school.
Take a look at the Design Team's creations at the Crafty Sentiments Challenge Blog. We're sponsored by Crafty Sentiments Designs and look what the prize is for this week's winner!
Thanks for stopping by and leave a comment so I can visit your blog!
Hugs,

He looked so cute on my Bloglovin page, great job coloring as always and I like the Scrabble blocks and button accents.
ReplyDeleteYour coloring/shading is fabulous, as always - the jeans look like denim and the backpack looks like canvas!! The Scrabble pieces are a thoughtful addition, as are the buttons. The background papers are great, too. A fabulous boy card, for sure, and hope you win at least some of your challenges entered !!
