Card Art July card kit and TGF Teacher Anya

Good morning everybody!!

I promissed to show you the card I did for my daughters second teacher as soon as the Card Art card kit was distributed and I think everybody has received theirs by now... so here it is :). Remember with this card was the same jar of candy we gave to Dyanne's other teacher.

For this card I used The Greeting Farm Teacher Anya and the Card Art July card kit, that's all. Carmen (the boss :) ) isn't a big fan of sales pitches but I just want to have mentioned one time that these kits are the best. I'm a member now since Februari of this year and I was on a waiting list for about three months before that. Carmen knows like no other how to put together a kit with cardstock, design papers, ribbons, embellies and sometimes crafties or stamps. There is a permanent waiting list but believe me... you NEED to be on that list if you don't have the kit yet. That's all I'm going to say about it! The design papers in the July kit are by Cosmo Cricket.

Here is the front of my card: Don't you just LOVE that Teacher Anya? I think she was one of the first stamps I bought from The Greeting Farm and I was so happy to have a chance to ink her up. I loved colouring her! Her is a close up:

Colouring as always with Derwent Watercolour Pencils, Copics and 3D effect with foamcubes. Since the card was wrapped up with a jar of candy I thought I'd use this yummy -howdoyoucallthese- thingy that was also in the card kit, as was the thingy where you can write your message to the teacher:

And when you do the inside... you need to do the back as well.. at least, that's what I think:

The personalized stamp I bought from my friend Nikki at Bunny Zoe's Crafts. These stamps are made of a new material to me but they leave a perfect print.

Well, that's it as far as this schoolyear is concerned. I did two more cards with the July card and I'll try to post one tomorrow and one Wednesday. I'm very busy at the moment doing a larger project with the August Pink Cat Studio Release (there isn't going to be a July Release) and I'm so excited about that one... but can't show you yet :S. These new cuties Melissa made are going to end up on top of your I NEED THEM!! list I'm sure.

Have a great day everybody!!
