Back to School

My second post for today, please scroll for the Wee Memories challenge - it is a sweet one this time.

The inspiration from Stampin Celebration:


I picked out the blue and yellow with the splash of red to make some fun stuff for my classroom.  I just love this digi paper from Shirley's 2 Girls - perfect when you need lots and are worried about hoarding!  The image is a Meljen's Designs which I paper pieced with some Bo Bunny - dot and Sunkissed.  To keep the clipboards in good condition, I will cover them with  some mactac otherwise with grade 1 I am sure they would be destroyed fairly quick.  My projects also fit the challenge at Our Creative Corner - letters and numbers.
With the scrap paper I covered some clips.


Close up of one of the clip boards, which are going to go into my writing center.

I couldn't stop there so I used up some more scraps of this digi paper from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff:

And finally I had to make a couple for Danica's desk in her room, with my zebra print paper from Cupcake Cutiees at My Grafico.

Now I better get dressed and do some dusting.

    Don't blame you for neglecting the dusting!!! I too am working on clipboards - two for hubby's driving instructors and some school ones as well since I just got my hands on the new Bo Bunny school line - love it! So pumped to have a teacher gift done for this year already!

    Love how yours turned out - that image is perfect and those bright papers too! What kid wouldn't want to write.... :)
