TEACH Ruler Back to School Card

Created this Back to School Card by recycling a Cheerios box cardboard for stamping the Hero Arts Ruler on. Used Tim Holtz Distress Ink on the cardboard ruler. This reminded me of the wooden rulers I used in school in younger days. Now most rulers are plastic. Used Mark's Finest papers stamp for sentiment. Used Stampin' Up punches for sentiment tag. Can be for a student or teacher.






















Supplies List 

ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black
paper: cardstock - Kraft, cream, red, sassafras  count me in
recycle: Cheerios cardboard box for ruler
stamp: Hero Arts Ruler, Mark's Finest Papers Lesson Learned sentiment TEACH
Stampin' Up: punches - Modern Label, Word Window
Tim Holtz: Distress Ink - walnut stain
