This is for the House Mouse Challenge-Back to School.
I made this bookmark for my son's girlfriend. We just found out today that she landed a teaching job. Talk about schools waiting until the last minute! My son is a teacher and now his girlfriend is a teacher with a job! I had to hurry up and make this because we were meeting for dinner to celebrate so if I had more time, I would have added more to it! The paper is Basic Grey and the letters are some corkboard letters from my stash. The stamp is Bedtime Story colored with Copic markers. Thanks for stopping by!

Once on the dark blue and one on the white with bronze embossing powder. I then glued the white dolphins over the dark blue. The paper is Flair Design and the shell is K&Co.

Cinema Saturday #43-Pirates of the Caribbean and Mojo Monday #98

I made this card for 2 challenges. The Cinema Saturday movie for inspiration is Pirates of the Caribbean. This is such a fun movie and I love Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow. I was looking at quotes from the movie and fell in love with this one which i printed on the computer. The skull is an iron on patch that I ironed on paper instead of cloth. The treasure chest is Jolee that I ripped out the presents and added my own hearts. I added 2 red hearts for the skull eyes and the patterned paper is Collage Press. You are supposed to use beads on your project so I am counting the tiny beads in the treasure chest! I used the great sketch from Mojo Monday.
