The Ribbon Reel Challenge #10

Today has been a big day for my boy - His first day at 'Big School' and just when I thought it had gone without a hitch he's now overtired and worried, I'm sure it will all be fine in the morrning.  So I have a card I made to wish him on his way for The Ribbon Reel Challenge #10 with a theme of 'Back to School' and this is photo for inspiration:



The challenge asks for a card using the colours in the photo plus school elements and ribbon/bakers twine.  I made this card over the weekend so added a bit of green to it for the challenge!!


I've used a white linen card blank, then stamped 'Racing Ted' from Funstamps onto another piece of white linen, coloured him in and layered on some blue from my stash.


This is layered onto some ribbon from my stash which I believe originated from a birthday cake - nothing like a bit of recycling!!


This new school wording was cut on  my sizzix sidekick using the Rat-a-Tat alphabet set - I'd forgotten how hard they are to stick on!!  Then finally I added some card candy from craftwork cards.

Hope you like my card
