Back To School Saturday!

Great Impressions Saturday!

Check out the newest releases from the Great Impressions online store.

This week  all the little munchkins are heading back to school so we thought we would show off these fun school stamps just released. I have a little grandson and also a special little boy both starting Kindergarten in just a few days, so I made these for them!  The first one is a fun little book mark! I bet my little grandson can read this sentiment too!  I figured there was no sense in getting too carried away with fancy details  as more than likely Cole's little bro will grab this and mangle it in no time flat LOL! You know how little one's can be!

This second little

project I made is  for my cute little bilingual friend just heading into kingergarten. I thought this "K" initial would be perfect for him! I bet he can read this too! It is amazing how smart these boys are already!

I hope you have enjoyed our school release week here at the Great Impressions Blog!

Have a great weekend!

Back to School Week continues

Happy Friday everyone and thanks for taking the time to stop and visit. It's back to school week for us here at the Great Impressions blog. If you have been followingalong, I have a sample to show you. If this is your first visit this week, make sure you look back at the other designer's samples. You won't be disappointed.

My card is using the large school bus (F505) and the circle framed alphabet(K83). I decided to create a little scene for my bus. I colored the bus with prismacolor pencils and gamsol and then cut it out. I added some glossy accents to the headlights and the tire centers.

To assemble my card, I started with my cloud background. I punched a scallop circle and used it as a template and sponged around it to create the clouds. I used a die to cut my rolling hill. The trees are cut from patterned paper.

I stamped the alphabet circles and used a circle punch to punch them out. I then layered my scene on my card base.

Well that's it for me today. Just a reminder that Splitcoaststampers is having a virtual stamping night on September 21 & 22. It's a back to school theme.  I am one of the hostesses so I hope you will play along. Get more info here.

The new stamps we have been showing all week will be perfect for all the challenges.
