Just Us Girls Challenge #455 Photo Inspiration

\

Hello and welcome!  It's a brand new challenge this week at Just Us Girls and Vicki is our host!
Here's the photo she has chosen!


And here's a closer look at it!



Be sure to stop by the blog to see what our amazing guest designer, Ros Crawford and the whole team have designed for your inspiration!

It's back to school time!  And for me that means back to school to my very part-time job directing the orchestra at a private Catholic high school nearby!  Lots of fun and a really great group of kids-they along with crafting have made my retirement absolutely perfect!


For my card I used the following supplies:
Concord & 9th All Year Long stamp set
Your Next Stamp Apple Die
Plaid paper from The Paper Studio
Kat Scrappiness Wonky rectangle die
Red Nuvo drops
 Black, white and kraft card stock

Be sure to stop by the JUGS blog for all the details on this week's challenge!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

  10. Such a cute card with the red gingham apple! So, you conduct orchestra; how fun is that. I worked as a freelance oboist/English horn for many years and teach privately still. I'm sure your work with these young orchestral musicians fills your days with joy! Thanks for sharing with us at Cut It Up! ~Katrina

  11. Your gingham apple and letters: pure delight! Definitely a cheery back-to-school card! Conducting the orchestra: what a fabulous role for you! I know that the joy the young musicians bring you is multiplied a thousand times over by the joy you'll bring to THEM in being their inspiring leader!
