Back to School

Today's a two-fer Tuesday, and this afternoon I'd like to share a project I put together for the back to school challenge going on over at SVG Cutting Files.  A couple weeks ago they released these really cute Chibi kids as icons and I thought they were too cute not to have so I bought and used them.  Then I saw this adorable Kawaii pencil treat box and thought, "yep, gotta have it too".

So I used these files to create a new cover for a composition book.  I used the pencil chibi kid and then found a scrap of what looks like notebook paper that I stamped using a stamp from Fresh Squeezed Stamps.  Of course I couldn't stop there so I cut out one of the chibi kids as a crayon and used him to create a wrap for a bottle of hand sanitizer.

To wrap it all together I cut the pencil box out, wrapped a few nuggets of hershey's chocolates with some scraps of ruler patterned paper and viola - it a set of back to school supplies any kid would love to have. 

And with that I'm off to go enter this into that challenge I was telling you about.  Challenge ends August 14th.

I'm also going to enter this into the Challenge over at Red Carpet Studios.  The challenge is to create a project that features "a kid at heart."  Amusement parks, summertime fun, family get togethers.  Now I don't know about you guys but I always get excited when it's time to go school shopping and this year will be my last year as my sixth and last child is a Senior this year.  So yeah, I'm going to be like a kid at heart as we shop for supplies.  This challenge ends July 26th.
