Teachers Rule


This is my September Crafters of Faith card.  This is a great group that my friend Kelly started on SCS.  She hosted for 5 years and now Faith has taken over for year #7. We will continue as we have in the past with each month a new hostess gives us a scripture and challenges us to make a card with that theme. 

I am actually the hostess this month and gave everyone this challenge:

Scripture:   Proverbs 9:9 Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still; teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.

Challenge: Pease make a card that reflects school or a teacher. Or, something that you remember from when you were in school--any age!

I have a fun set from Art Impressions called Teachers Rule that I got used at a craft rummage sale in the past year or so.  Being a retired teacher, I love this set and have already used it a few times.  It makes great teacher cards and fun cards for other occasions too! I think this card can be for a birthday as it refers to 29 again, or for a veteran teacher heading back to school.  I colored the fun lady with my Copic Sketch Markers and die cut the image along with a black backer from Gina Marie Stitched Circle Dies.   The background papers are from an Echo Park Paper line called Paper & Glue--Journaling Cards.  I added a few banners punched with my Stampin' Up Mini Banner Punch.





Here is the inside of my card, with a strip of ruler washi tape.




I hope you and the others from the Crafters of Faith group like my card this month!  We are to post on the 7th of each month, so if you look on my sidebar, you may see other creations.  I know that there will be many posted in the COF thread on SCS too!

  1. Barb, your teacher card is perfect! Love the papers - and that ruler inside. Nice addition! (Funny thing is, I almost used this stamp set for my card, too... but then decided to go a different direction.)
