I am Sarah, a stay at home mom of two wonderful, little boys. In my life before kids I was a fifth grade teacher. I now work with first year teachers, which I love. Creating is one of the ways I stay sane. I become very cranky if I have not stamped or scrapped in a while. Join me on this creative journey.

Make It Monday #5

I know right? Two days in a row. I am telling ya, I am trying. Today is my older sister's birthday, you got the older part, right? I thought I would use this week's Make It Monday challenge over at Papertrey Inc. The challenge was to distress a bit, not stress but distress. :) I used my Banner Builder set to make the background, after I sanded the cardstock my Fresh Snow ink came in handy when I wanted to distress the edges of the Kraft paper. What do you think of that ribbon? This past weekend while we were away we combed some antique shops and I found a whole bunch of cool ribbon, just like the one above but in a bunch of different colors, love that! Enjoy and thanks for stopping by.
