Cricut Cardz Challenge #88

Back to School time is here.  It's amazingly hard to believe that summer is almost over.  We have a Back to School theme this week at Cricut Cardz with a twist.  We're getting ready for the "three Rs" for back to school.  Our version of the three Rs is ribbon, rhinestones and using the color red.   I used the Locker Talk cartridge for this cute little backpack shaped card.   I used my Gypsy to weld the shadows of the cut together at the top and then cut it from red cardstock.  I used DCWV All About Girls stack for my patterned papers.  I added a little faux stitching with my MS sepia marker, added a few red rhinestones and a red gingham ribbon at the top.  I'll be sending this card to my granddaughter, Payton, to celebrate her first day of kindergarten in a few weeks.
