Stationary Thanks Teacher

Stationary Thanks Teacher
My daughter Teacher's Day celebration is just few days away. Thus, I am in rush for some quick cards! Luckily this year the number of cards are reduced as most of the subjects are teach by her class teacher. I just admire her class teacher so much as she can teach altogether seven (7) subjects - Chinese language, Mathematics, Science and Technology, Physical Education, Morale, Co-curriculum and Music! Some subjects are really need of specialization (e.g. Music) but she can teach as well. Here is my card for her!


CAS(E) This Sketch #75
I adopt the simple sketch from CAS(E) This Sketch #75 as shown above. However, I rotate the sketch to the clockwise direction.

Close-up : Custom background using chalk, duster and ruler
The white stitching journal card is stamped with chalk, duster and ruler randomly to create a custom background. Then, each of the item is colored using Copic markers. The journal card edges are distressed with ink so that the whiteness of the journal card is toned down. It is the attached onto a red 3.5" x 4.5" card base.

Close- up : Sentiment inside the banner with gems
A yellow modified fishtail banner is stamped with sentiment and attached onto the custom background as in the sketch. Three (3) light pink gems are added to the left edge of the banner to add some dimension.

Stationary Thanks Teacher - Inside
As my daughter's class teacher is superb by able to teach altogether seven (7) subjects, I added a sentiment inside to the card as well. The sentiment and the stationary are stamped on a white card stock and colored using Copic markers. It is rounded the four (4) corners before attaching into inside of the card.
