I've had this card made for some time but never posted it, so today I'm sharing it with the House Mouse & Friends HMFMC #297 - anything goes or back to school.
When I see pencils my brain goes back to my school days, so this reminded me of school, but it's just a general-themed card. The image was colored with Copics and die cut with Lil Inker stitched rectangle dies, along with the Hello Honey and Rich Cocoa card stock. I added a slightly larger mat of the Cocoa behind the image panel and added a sentiment from SU! which I cut with a scalloped punch and matted with a punched circle.
It's an easy card to put together and when we were kids, we all chewed on our pencils all the time LOL
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great day whatever you do!

Look at you having the perfect image. I am sure that will be Brian, gnawing away on his first day of 1st grade. Great card, Carol!
This is the sweetest card! I love the image!! And the tiny little circle sentiment is just right. I definitely chewed on my pencil when I was a kid too. It made it hard to find an eraser...
Ah ah ah!! :D How fun! This little guy is very cool and make me laugh! Great design, perfect for masculine recipients!! Love the sentiment topper in shape of flower, such cute detail!
