The last of this week's rush cards was for my son's teacher - here's what I made for her:
I used this week's sketch from Mojo Monday, and I'm also entering it into Mo's Digital Challenge ("Book or Story" - mine is a school reader called "10 Red Apples") and Creative Inspirations ("Summer").
Thanks to my friend Anne for the fab seam binding - Anne, it is lovely stuff to work with and very crumpleable!!
I used this gorgeous new Mo Manning image - isn't he such a cute little fella with the plaster on his elbow. Here's a close up:
Recipe:
Papers: October Afternoon "Thrift Shop"
Image: Mo Manning "For Teacher"
Colouring Medium: Distress Inks
Other: Seam binding, flower stamps and red e.p., Hero Arts smooth gems, needle + thread
Am off to bed now and will have a massive sleep-in in the morning - woohoo!! I love holidays!
Thanks for looking!
