Speedy Fox & Friends 179 - Back to School

Happy Saturday!!  I hope you had a good week and have a nice weekend planned!  At Mark's Finest Papers & Stamps a  HC it's time for a new Speedy Fox & Friends challenge and the challenge this week is "Back to School".   It's hard to believe but our kids have been in school Eight weeks already!

 I decided to go with a "Thank you" card for one of the teachers.  We can never have too many "Thank You" cards on hand!


I made a little "chalkboard" for my sentiment using "Big Cupcake".   I paper pieced the apple from "Lesson Learned"  and popped it up on sticky foam pads.  

For more information on the challenge and to see the fabulous designs of my teammates please head on over to Mark's Finest Papers & Stamps a HC blog right HERE.

Thanks so much for looking and I hope you have a great weekend!

    I love how you colored your apple and that little reflection of white pen on there. You really are an artist, Angie!

    Angie - great way to interpret the challenge - they have even been back 3.5 weeks here! Love the use of the blackboard technique with your bright shiny apple. The US apples look for shinier than ones here - but we do get ones with lovely flavour! I like your choice of paper too.

    Love the chalkboard and that big apple. The plaid paper is perfect. Hope things have been going well and your daughter is doing great from her surgery. My goodness, summer flew past us quickly, didn't it? Guess you're gearing up for the holidays now.
