Back to School Blog Hop

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

Today features projects with a back to school theme. I had lots of ideas floating in my head. I have a great niece that is starting Kindergarten and with her in mind, I created my card 

 

I think she is going to enjoy receiving this card. Whenever I see her she is dressed in princes type clothes, so the hippo really spoke to me. I created a couple pencils using strips of paper and Stampin' blends to color the details in. I knew I wanted to use the Alphabest stamp so I created the background with the ABC stamps
