Back To School - Outlawz Greetings Challenge

Hello, Crafty Peeples!

I want to share two projects that I made for the Monday Greetings Challenge over at The Outlawz.  Finally, an opportunity to use my Graphic 45 ABC Primer papers.  I only have a few sheets, not quite enough to make the 3D project I had planned, so I've just been sitting on it.  The Bookplate Holder Idea is my very own! 
I also made a really simple card for my second project because it allowed me to practice the "Bordered Sentiment" Technique.  I was pleased with both outcomes.


BOOKPLATE HOLDER
WARNING, WARNING!!! LOTS OF PICTURES
I wanted to see if the tab card would work with a landscape orientation...and it does!  YaY Me!



The Bookplate in the center is removable

Project #2 - "BORDERED SENTIMENT

 This technique really does make your sentiment POP!  I will have to experiment with a few more sentiment stamps!  You can use any size sentiment and still get an eye popping design!
