You Rule

Here's a simple teacher themed card for the current sketch at CAS(e) this Sketch.  I used Lawn Fawn's A Good Apple stamp set and some washi tape to put this one together.

I stamped the set's "you rule" sentiment in white pigment ink on a gray cardstock strip and heat embossed it with white embossing powder for a nice pop.  The sentiment strip is set over a kraft fishtail flag strip adhered to a piece of red dotted patterned paper.  To go with my school/ruler theme, I ran a strip of ruler patterned washi tape down the right side of the fishtail flag strip before layering it on the card--it's hard to see the ruler markings in the photo, but I promise they're there!  I anchored the sentiment strip with the set's apple image that I stamped on a scrap of white cardstock and colored with Spectrum Noir markers.
