This week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge theme is "Back to School." We're also featuring products from 49 and Market. I remember that going back to school could be pretty scary (I'm talking to YOU, junior high!) so I made a little box of confidence for any kiddos who need some extra emotional support when that first back to school bell rings.
Next I did a little more painting and stamping on my box with some Seth Apter stamps and glued one of the die-cut rings to it. Then I cut a piece of Dina Wakley Ledger paper to go inside my box and outlined it with Distress Watercolor Pencils. I cut this happy and supportive-looking crew from Tim Holtz's Photobooth images.
I typed out a "We believe in you" sentiment on my typewriter and glued it to the ladies. Then I attached them to the inside of the box using adhesive foam squares to give them a little bit of raised dimension.
I glued my ticket to the front of the box and this little confidence-booster was done!
