I choose this dapper fella' from Paperbag Studios today for my theme, First Day of School, isn't he a trip! Now....then..............then....now, how times have changed! Thought I'd try something different and stamp him directly on the paper I choose....I like it. He's framed in some nesties that I added the Wisped frames tech from the TJNL with. The black frame looked too stark, so by adding white chalk ink while I wisped away....it got softer and now has the slight appearance of a chalkboard. Hope all the kids get back to school safely and that they have a great year. hugz till next time...........

Love that sentiment..tooo cute! Great card Gerrie...love the blue monotone and the grungy look! {SMILES}
Great card, that image is precious and love how you stamped it directly on the paper-the whisped edges really do soften it and love the little button accent.
Yes...he's ready for school, reluctant or not! ;-) The wisped frame tech works so well with the whole piece, Gerrie!
