This is for sketch challenge SC398 which I chose to also use in the WT388 challenge "School Tools".
I hope this still counts for the Ways to Use It Challenge as I thought about my 1st year in High School and the Home Economics class I had..(Is that class still offered in school?) Anyway, I remembered my 1st dress and how awful it was and as I made this card I thought of that dress and the fun class that it was.. My school tools are the staples, the measuring tape stamped ribbon, the buttons and straight pins.
TFL!

I took home ec in the first year of high school too and went on to do a lot of sewing for myself. Sadly (at least in Ontario) sewing and cooking class has gone the way of the dodo. Your card brings back a lot of memories. Great idea for that challenge!

Terrific card celebrating the "practical arts" of high school days gone by! EVERYTHING is sewing related which makes it fun to take in all the details.
