A School Loving Dragon Card!

Thank you so much for joining the new Critter Challenge! I can't wait to share what I created for the new challenge and see what you all create!!

If you like our blog & posts we would love for you to give our blog a follow and you can check out any of our socials: Facebook, Instagram, & YouTube with the Links on the righthand sidebar!

Sabra here, and I am so excited to share my new project for the new Critter Crazy Challenge Blog's #114 Anything Goes Challenge! The challenge starts on September 1 and goes until the 25th! I hope you will check out their fun challenge and join in the fun! 

This card was made with about 90 other school cards! My mother and I saw that Card of Kindness were in desperate need of school themed cards of all kinds! For students, for teachers, graduations, teacher appreciation, school is cool, etc.! So we buckled down and made a bunch of different school themed cards that we actually just mailed off during the first week of August! I loved the Spellbinders adorable dragon, Sir Spelly! I thought that a student would love to get a dragon with glasses and a pencil, of course, on a brightly colored card! So I made this super fun school themed card featuring Sir Spelly, the cutest school loving dragon!!! 

Here is the card:

Some specific products I used:

• Spellbinders Party Time Dragon, Sir Spelly Die Set
• Spellbinders Smart Glasses Die Set
• Spellbinders Classroom Chronicles (Book and Pencil)
• Spellbinders Crayon Creations (Yay! sentiment)
• Echo Park Paper Co I Love School 6x6 Paper Pad
• Picket Fence Studio's Fabulous Foiling Toner Card Stock - Hues of a Rainbow
• Simon Says Stamp Nocturne Black VersaFine Clair Ink Pad
• Tim Holtz Blackstock Cardstock
• Stitched and Nesting Circle Dies
• Various colored cardstock and embellishments from personal crafting stash

Here are some more photos to show some close-up details of the card:

......and that's it! 

Happy crafting to you all! We hope you feel inspired to create something and try something new!
