Clique Kits - Pep Rally September Study Abroad



Welcome to the Clique Kits September Blog Share! You should have arrived here from Rosann, if not you can start your blog tour overhere at the Clique Kits blog.

This month's blog share, featuring the Study Abroad kit, is all about Be Daring. I took that challenge to scrapbooking and my huge dare is making cards. It's just something I would love to do more often, but I end up never being happy with the result, especially when I see the work of some very talented card makers. 

For this card I started out with one of the 3x4 Flash Cards that Ashley from The Cut Shoppe designed for this kit. This card was going to be a birthday card for my niece who turned 5 years old two days ago, so I wanted to highlight the number 5 with gold embossing powder. I backed the flash card with the Crate Paper vellum and covered the edges with the Pinkfresh Studio glitter washi tape. The pink strips of paper are from the Dear Lizzy paper and the black alpha is from Sodalicious that can be found in the Clique Kits School Store. I placed the whole cluster on a piece of the Dear Lizzy paper and tucked in one of the Maya Road shipping tags.
