Tuesday Morning Sketches combo



I really struggled with Tuesday Morning Sketch's challenge this week, then I went looking for a few other challenges to couple with it (smart, huh?) to help guide me with where I wanted to go creatively. I found 365 Cards with the challenge to include alphabet stickers and at least one number (rub-ons count, right??????), Storage Units, Ink and More! and Dancing in Pajamas both have "Back to School" themes. Hearts and Hugs also posted a back to school theme challenge, but make it a gift. Gift card holders count as gifts, right? Project Tuesday wanted to see our gifty card holders. FINALLY, Die Cuts R Us DT posted a color challenge for Chocolate Brown, Teal, and White (or Ivory). Yep, I think that's it, 7 challenges in one card!

Now, on to the details:
Cardstock: DCWV white, red #1, brown #1; SU! In-Colors Curry, Bermuda Bay
Stamps: Apples in a basket from TDS, sentiment cut & pieces from rub-on letters and numbers
Accessories: 5/8" Offray brown organdy ribbon; 1/16" hole punch; twine; copper mini-flower brads; dimensional tape
Copics/Prisma/Markers: silver leaf pen; 0 colorless blender, W-5 Warm Gray #5, Y15 Cadium Yellow, E31 Brick Beige, E47 Dark Brown, G07 Nile Green, R27 Cadium Red, R29 Lipstick Red; PM-197 Green Tea, PM-88 Dark Brown
