Time Savers: Back to School Tag

Posted on July 31, 2014 by justtyra

With school starting next month (time flies, doesn’t it?), I searched my stash for stamps with a “back-to-school” theme and I created the following tag:

The tag above was created with Sweet Stamp Shop images, Studio Calico Alphas and Inspiration Ave’s stamped sentiments. I colored in the images with Copics of various colors. I was pretty satisfied with the finished product except for the fact that I have more than one child, which means I have more than one teacher to create a gift tag for.

So I made a photocopy of the tag using my supper cheap and old HP Inkjet onto more Neenah card stock. I used my lil’ inkers tag die cut the copy, resulting in:

Two tags that are nearly identical. I added some shading to the glue bottle on the copy similar to the original. A true timesaver! That’s all for now. Take care and thanks for stopping by!

Posted on April 3, 2014 by justtyra

Happy Thursday! (It’s almost Friday). It’s spring break here in my neck of the woods and the husband and I have split with week spending time with our kiddos while they are out of school. We started spring break off by attending a wedding near the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan and since that time, things have been pretty low key. Walks to the park and multiple viewings of Frozen. As a matter a fact two of my kids are in the same room with me fighting over the DVD jacket.

Well, I’m here to share a sneak peek of the latest SEI Challenge!

I loved the paper I used for this project. The best thing? No watering! Anyway, I hope you can play along. There is a $25 gift code to the winner! The kinds folks over at SEI wanted me to mention that this challenge is open to US and Canadian residents.
