1. Fold a piece of blue cardstock in half using a bone folder or similar tool. Punch one of the long edges with the Threading Water punch and make that the bottom of the card.
2. Cut a 4 ¼” X 6 ½” rectangle from the piece of black construction paper and center it above the punched area and adhere it to the card.
3. Cut ½-inch strips from the patterned paper and adhere covering the edges of the construction paper.
4. Using a piece of chalk, write message and classroom work on board.
I live on the western edge of Illinois in a large Mississippi River town with my husband Kevin and son Joshua. They are both very supportive of my crafting making sure that I have time to myself to work and encouraging me to step out of my comfort zones to submit things I make. I have done many types of crafts over the years including cake designing and making chocolates, but have focused more on card making, scrapbooking and painting. I had stopped for a while, but got back into it to make sure that I had time for myself being a stay-at-home mom. I am active on several message boards and craft forums where I have met many friends who enjoy the same things I do. I am a proofreader and have written articles for the online eNewsletter, “Oh Scrap.” I am also a Certified Fiskars Demonstrator which allows me to share my joy of crafts with others. I am also able to share what I make through my blog:
