School and Rainbows

Weird title hey?!  I know, I am bad at figuring out what to name my posts sometimes.  But basically, this one is about a card I created to enter into the current Wee Memories challenge which is "Back to School" and also Lucy Abrams is having a Rainbow Week challenge where you are to create a card using a rainbow of colours!  And actually, come to think of it, my card also fits the Moxie Fab Square Sketch Challenge.  Oh wow, three challenges in one, that's a first!

I went and played with some PTI stamp sets to create this card and also some glitter, which is very unusual for me, but I'll keep this one for my daughter to give to her teacher at the appropriate time.  My apologies for the poor picture quality, it's also a 14cm X 14cm card so I struggled to try and fit it in the frame without it blurring up!

Paper: PTI; Neenah
Ink: Various Memento ink pads; Copic Markers (pin); Stazon (black)
Stamps: PTI (Friendship Jar Summer Fillers; Happy Trails), Hero Arts (CL404)
Other: Glitter; Scor Tape; Dimensional Squares; Acetate

Here is a little close up:

To create the glitter frame I simply adhered some Scor Tape around the card and poured glitter all over it and shook off the excess.

The jar itself is made of acetate which I glued over the pencils with a very thin line of glossy accents.

That pale purple at the bottom of the jar is a stamp that comes in the set and I used it to represent maybe some tissue paper or just something that the pencils could rest on as they are not tall enough for the jar.

I popped up the sentiment and then added the pin which I used glossy accent on.

It's so hot out here at the moment and my daughter is bored and wants to go and do something!  Sitting here racking my brain trying to think of what will make her happy!

Wishing you all a fabulous Sunday and for the East Coast people, I hope that you are all staying safe and dry!
