SEP12VSNL ~ Saturday, Sept 22nd ~ 6:00pm EST ~ A Classroom Layout
Title: A Classroom Layout
Hostess: Vannessa, saffivort
Keyword: SEP12VSNL
Day/Date: Saturday, Sept 22nd
Time: 6:00pm EST
Back in the day of Victorian classrooms (and actually in the Simpsons classroom's too) the children sat in rows all facing the blackboard and the teacher's desk, looking a bit like this:
Or like this:
But my classroom looks nothing like that. In fact I don't even have a teacher's desk, not a proper one. I have a small children's table for my computer that is connected to my interactive whiteboard, but not an adult sized desk. My 5 sets of children's tables are also in groups of 6 or 8.
Those older classroom layouts are perfect for a sketch though. My challenge is to use the sketch below, based on a linear style classroom to create a card. Feel free to flip it, rotate it as long as I can still see the sketch there. I've added a couple of samples as well.
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE HERE
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON Monday September 24th.
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword, SEP12VSNL , when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure you layout is seen.

Might have to think about moving out to the sticks where I can't get out of my driveway! :p

This is gorgeous - a perfect Autumn/Fall card. (We don't use Fall over here in the UK so I have to remember to use it on here )

Great sketch idea Vanessa, and it's all I've ever known, we started school with slate tablets and slate sticks and look at where we are now back to tablets even though they are some what more expensive :lol:
Heres my card Sip by Sip

Love your card - fab idea and I love all the rainbow squares!
And you're spot on with the tablets. My school haven't quite got them yet. My head teacher won't go down the iPad route just yet, so we've got a stack of notebooks coming instead - the electronic versions :P But in a few years time I can see almost all schools in the UK using some sort of tablet.

I struggled with this one until I remembered I had a stamp I could use and not try to fit die cuts on a quarter sheet with room to spare!

Fun sketch! My inspiration struck last night for your challenge. I am not sure it turned out as good as I hoped but after investing the time last night, I wasn't going to trash it. Maybe another kind of ribbon or twine would have been better on the tags. Anyway....
Here is: Tag Full
