congratWHOOlations!!

Yesterday morning and afternoon, eight of my middle school students competed at a math competition. Yeah, I know what you're thinking. Who wants to get up early on a Saturday morning and take a math test? Honestly they didn't, but the cafeteria (at the college where the competition was held) enticed them. Even better than the all-you-can-eat feast was the fact that my team of 4 won 4th place out of 18 teams AND one of my students placed 3rd out of over 120 competitors!! We now are moving on to the state competition in March.

So I decided to make some cards to congratulate them on their hard work. I love this owl from Hero Arts and incorporated it into a card for today's featured stamper challenge over at SCS.



My card is based on SCS's juliemlacey's Clickabella card.

I changed:
- Colors
- DP
- ribbon
- image
- sentiment
- embellishments
- card style (her's opens from the top; mine from the side)

Details:
Stamps - Hero Arts Big Owl (K5059)
Paper - Cricut pack (DP & Orange); Archivers (green & blue)
Ink - Black, Brushables markers
Embellishments - ribbon (Michael's), eyelets, corner punch
Sentiment - computer generated (Burst My Bubble font)


Now I'm off to make a few more of these and some thank you's. Thanks for stopping by!
