Four School Themed Mini Slimline Cards


I wanted to make the grandkids 'Back To School' cards, and when I went through my bin I found I already had two made.  I needed three more cards so decided to use the January 2023 Sheetload of Cards. That one makes eight Mini Slimline cards, but using partial sheets & leftover pieces I came up with these four cards ...three "Back To School" and one Teacher Thank You card.

The cute images were coloured a long time ago when we were at our cabin so I pulled them out as well as a teacher stamp set.



There were some stickers in the paper package that I used as well, and wrote a message for the grandkids cards.


Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally. 

Card Tally for 2023
January - 53 cards
February - 56 cards
March - 55 cards
April - 32 cards
May - 43 cards
June - 34 cards
July - 56 cards
August so far - 70 cards

I decided to cancel the subscription that provided linked thumbnails to what products I used on my cards. It was costing me out of pocket each month, so I’m back to listing what I used.
