This is for today's Ways to use it challege--to use a pin.
After poking myself a few times....I finally got it right. Took my daughter to register for 6th grade today and we went school shopping so this inspired this card.
I used My Favorite Things (Back to School) set. This set will be great for the beginning of the year and the end. Woohooo!
I used Martha Stewart journaling blocks to create the background. I used leftover scraps from a scrap kit I got at Walmart for the Words. They came in handy.
I stitched the bottom to add a bit more black on the main panel.
Thanks for looking!!!

This is really neat for a back to school card. Like how you used the pin.

Hey, Carolyn! This means you're home now, right?! Hope you had a great summer! Being at the beach sure didn't hurt your stamping skills -- this is awesome! I love the journaling blocked bg. Too cute!

The placement of the pin is perfect - love the colours and the layout.
