My sweet little PI You Make the Grade girl looks waaaay more excited about school than I am right now. I'm just having a hard time juggling everything, getting back to work full time, taking care of the kids and hubby, and finally finding time to stamp! I've colored her with a combination of Copics and colored pencils & gamsol and then matched her up with cute October Afternoon papers. I think my favorite part of this card is the Die-namics oval chain border. I'd originally thought I'd put the border at the top of the patterned piece and then played around with the placement and thought it made a nice home just where you see it.
Let's see what the other WSC sisters have done with this week's challenge and make sure that you use keyword MFTWSC09082010 if you're uploading to SCS.:

Ok, let's get on with Part 2 of this post: my TCP Sneaky Peek...
I'm peeking Coffee, Tea or Meow today, complete with a Sprinkle tea party! I've matched up my Sprinkle tea party with some delicious Crate Paper Restoration papers for the perfect vintage looking tea party, so of course, Sprinkle had to dust off her pearls! See that pinking border? That's coming your way from TCP as well on September 14th, so be sure to come back for more sneak peeks, the release party at SCS on September 13th and a full blog hop on release day!
Cheerio!
Cheerio!

These are both so fun!! Love the "School" background and details you added to your card. Sweet image and layout on your first creation. The paper piecing and design is gorgeous and so fun on the 2nd.
