we're saying it's "Back To School!" time so we want to see those projects all about school....using a Tiddly Inks image, of course!
Tell the truth I didn't realize until these last few years that not all students go back to school in September, like we do here....in fact the majority of Canadian schools welcome their students back in September, after Labour Day. But, from reading blogs, I've noticed that some kids go back at various times in August. I'm very curious to know when the students in your area get back to the books....would love it if you left me a comment about it!
Okay, now that I've given you homework (tee hee), I'll show you what I made to celebrate back to school.....I went quite literal (and punny) with it.....
It's a little wordy, sure, but once the idea popped into my head I had to go with it. I used Whale Of a Time....no colouring needed - ha! I also used a digi paper freebie from Mein Lila Park for my school of fish (see what I did there....*snicker*). Love their expressions.
I think I'm going to put this on my oldest's pillow after he leaves for his first day of Grade 10 so he can see it when he gets home. 'Coz all 15 year old boys love rib-tickling pun and cutesy cards, right?
So why not show us your back to school project and enter the challenge? And be sure to also check out the fabulousness the DT has come up with.

ReplyDeleteFyi, my kids go back the 29th. Damn the district: it used to always be after Labor Day. We all feel a little cheated, but in reading around Bloglandia, I am glad we did not go back weeks ago!
Wonderful card, great idea to use the whale and then the word play around him.
