I know that I shouldn't be thinking about the end of school, but I love having my kids to my self....I know, I know.....I will be singing a different tune about 1 week after school lets out..... but until then I will get a head start on teacher cards and gifts. Lets just skip spring and head right into summer.
I am following the Mojo Monday week 190 sketch.
My supplies: Paper- American Crafts a la carte, Heidi grace designs, brown and blue card stock; white ribbon colored with copics YG 25; stamps- "Favorite Teacher" that I have used, alot and Penny Blacks "Betsy Bluebell"; Creative Memories- Butterfly punch and paper flowers. I also used copics B12, B14, B16, E00, C1, C3, Y23, E55, E57, YG25, RV09, R39, G03, B91.

You Rock!
This card was so fun to do. I followed the template on this weeks Mojo Monday contest 189. I hope to enter this card in the contest. Either way, I love this card....I just hope the Birthday Boy does too.
I was also going to use guitar string to anchor the star, but it seemed to sharp and I could not fold it and safely adhere it to the card. I used Gillian Roberts stamp "I'm a Rock Star"; my computer, printer, vellum, and a star font that I found on line; pop dots; Smooch Spritz- silver on the brown and blue stars; Creative Memories- star and star border punches; Paper : Making Memories- Patterned Argyle, The goods American Craft, and card stock- blue, brown.
I started with copics paper and stamped 2 images using black Memento Ink. I started with the guitar and colored both stamps at the same time so that each looked the same. I then colored the sleeve and the skin. Now with that done, I cut out the guitar and the sleeve so that I could use the pop dots and make the guitar stand out. I then went back to my coloring. When I was done coloring, I attached pop dots to the back of the guitar and glued the shoulder to the first image. The pop dots were a little high so I cut them down and used my glue pen to adhere the dots to the first image.
These are the copics that I used;
Guitar- C1, C3, N4, N6
Pants- B24, B26
Skin- E00, E02
Shirt- N6, G3, G5, G7
Hair- E55, E57, E59
Shoes- E57, E59
I think that my favorite thing about this card is the pop out guitar.
