This card might be a little late in most parts of the country, but here in my neck of the woods we have one more week before school starts. I was inspired to make a clean & simple card by some cards I saw on Pinterest. There's no die cutting involved in this card at all, which is kind of unusual for me!
The card base is regular black cardstock. For the patterned paper, I knew I wanted it to look like a composition book, but I couldn't find any free digital papers, so I made my own paper by making a copy of a composition book I happened to have in the house and cutting it down to the size of a card mat. I got the chalkboard tags a long time ago in the Target dollar bin, and then stamped the sentiment from Joy's Life with some white ink. Super quick, and just the way it looked in my head. :)
I'm entering this card into the following challenges:
Craftin' Desert Divas- Back to School
Simon Says Stamp, Wednesday Challenge- Back to School
Super cute & fun!

Becky, this is a sweet, sweet card! Reminds me of the notebooks I had in school! Here in my neck of the woods, school doesn't start until after Labor Day either! Thanks for playing along with us at Craftin Desert Diva's!
