The Around the World on Wednesday (AWOW) team and I are hopping today — here on our blogs, and on Instagram. For this month’s challenge we are making projects around “1-2-3…A-B-C”, and we could interpret that however we wanted. Since my youngest starts 9th grade tomorrow, and we take my oldest to college on Friday, I have Back to School on the brain. I thought Back to School cards would work well with this theme. Before we get to that, let’s introduce the AWOW Team–here’s who we are and where we are in the world:

Let’s take a look at my two cards:

I’m using the Bird’s Eye View stamp set, along with the Everyday Details and Mini Alphabet dies. I LOVE this DSP combo using Take to the Sky DSP and the Iconic Celebration DSP. I love how these turned out. The best part? The new Basic Beige color is amazing too.
Let’s take a closer look at each:


Here’s Card #2:


The bird in the glasses is my favorite…so cute!

A perfect back-to-school card ^^ I admit I prefer the first one, but they’re both adorable.
Thank you!!
Absolutely adorable and fitting cards for the theme, Kelly! I love this stamp set with these colors! Good luck with your trip on Friday! And enjoy another few years of high school fun. xx
Thank you so much for your well wishes too!
It’s always nice to see variation on a theme like this. The librarian in me loves to see the books too. 🙂
YAY for librarians and books! Thanks for the comment!
