A+ Student Card
This is a fun card! I recently earnt the Letters For You Bundle as a 50% item and it was well worth it! Its an amazing set and I can see so many uses for it already.
This card is made with some Fruit Stand DSP (apples are sooooo school!) and the Gold foil cardstock. The colours on the A+ is Perfect Plum - delicious along with the Apple paper.

I think I get an A+ for effort!

Square Pencil Box

This pencil box is so easy to make and you could decorate it however you wish! I created this so that the inner pencil holder box would slide in and out of the outer case. Totally hip!
