All Teachers and Stuff

Today is my oldest daughter's last day at school for the indefinite future, as the state shuts down schools due to the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. I wanted to make a card for the teachers and staff at the school who have been working hard to get the children prepared for the possibility of homeschool next term.

Initially, the school was planning on having it's last day next Tuesday, so here I was thinking "all good, I'll make some cards over the weekend", but then an announcement from the Premier yesterday threw a spanner in the works - today will be their last day!

So I stayed up late last night getting these cards done, some ideas are CASEd from general Google searches. Enjoy the crazed creativity. Smashing goals.

An idea from Pinterest to split the stamp into 3 circles

I stamped the boat onto white vellum with Versamark and embossed black powder over it, then I turned the sheet over and coloured with Stampin' Write Makers before punching out the circles and adhering to a Whisper White Circle.

All Masking and Stuff

I've decided it was time to work out some cards using the "Pedal Presents" hostess set I'd never used before and wanted to try my hand at some masking. 

Here's what I came up with:

And then I wanted to try one layer. Possibly my first ever one layer card. I am terrible at sticking to a CAS design.

Enjoy your day!

Cheers,

Tami xx

My friend is getting hitched next weekend, so this is the card her and her new husband will be receiving. Took me so long to come up with something, so now I just hope she doesn't read my blog and spoil the surprise ;-)
