I’m not sure this guy is making it to the top of the class, but I couldn’t resist pairing him with that Basic Grey sticker for this week’s CAS-ual Fridays Challenge, which is to make a back to school themed card.

This week’s sponsor is Pretty Paper Studio! How great would it be to win a gift certificate there.

I don’t have any school themed stamps, but I was able to pick up the Echo Park papers and the BG sticker in a jiffy at my LSS. I also behaved and was able to escape without any other wallet damage. Success! LOL. The little monster from Paper Smooches was paper pieced using a matching yellow-toned paper from Carta Bella, and I added the brown DMC floss bow since I felt like the bottom of the card needed a little extra something. I really love the math equations all over the background.

I hope you enjoy the long weekend!
