Hey there! We're celebrating {Back to School} at Inspired By this week. You also have the option of {Cool Holiday: IB186C} and our sketch. So many fun options! I went with back to school. You see, I just HAD to have the Concord & 9th crayon dies months ago. This is their first outing (hangs head in shame!).
Another card for my Sweet P stash! She likes to do what she calls the three crayon challenge. Close your eyes, pick three crayons and then color the coloring book page she picked for us. It gets interesting! I did teach her that she can stretch those three colors by coloring lighter or darker. Now she's even experimenting with mixing the colors ~ that's my girl!
This card was super simple. An ABC dry embossed background, my three crayons and a PTI tiny tag holding a DeNami Design sentiment. I think I'll package this one up with a new coloring book for the wee one. She loves to get mail from gramma and papa!
Okay, your turn! Thanks for visiting

I HAD to have that same C & 9 crayon die set, and also have yet to use it Lisa...now whose head is hanging in shame?!! Absolutely LOVE your card though...CAS and just perfect! And I just love your little Sweet P story about the 3 color challenge...will have to teach that one to my Addy!! Hugs. :0)
This is such a darling maiden voyage for those crayons, Lisa! Miss P is going to love it... we should use her three crayon challenge some time!! LOve that embossing!

Those crayons are perfect for this challenge and I love them tied in string. Super fun! Love the gift idea too.
This card is SO special, I love your design, with the embossed white panel and the three-crayon challenge sounds like fun!
NO shame in just now breaking out those dies...they're adorable! Especially against that amazing background! Cassidy likes to do that "challenge" as well, only with markers...it's very interesting to see what we come up with using our colors!
How fun! Who are the crayons from? Very cute and perfect for Sweet P!
Lisa I think that your crayons are super cute! I bought these dies too and my daughter was first in line to use it to make some fun decorations for her classroom! I just love your sweet card and I hope that Miss P is having a great time at school!
That three crayon challenge sounds like fun, Lisa. I'm thinking Miss P is going to turn into a great artist. This is such a wonderful card to share with her.
Oh gosh this is so cute Lisa! I love your little crayons and that embossed alpha background... of course you know that blow is so sweet too! I can just imagine you coloring with three crayons.. that is a tough challenge - I bet it keeps you sharp though.. seeing the world with new eyes!
I'm so in love with this fresh, clean, colorful card! Even more so with Sweet P's three crayon story!
Loving those crayons, and your wonderful card! Your story of Sweet P and her coloring is a terrific memory and pretty adorable
I've said it before and I'll say it again: will you please be my gramma? This is an amazing eye-catching and textured design, Lisa! It is magazine cover schtuff! Sweet P must have a trunk for saving all your cherished cards and keepsakes, including a copy of this post so she can remember how she first learned to experiment with mixing colors and making color challenges!! Hugs, Darnell
absolutely perfect take on the inspiration photo! super cute design, lisa!
This is simply wonderful Lisa!
What a wonderful card for your granddaughter! I love her three crayon idea! The embossed background is wonderful and I love the twine and that tiny tag.
Well, of course! That is so fun! Love this card with 3 crayons which Sweet P will immediately connect with the game you guys have! You're an amazing, Grandma!
Your cards are always so special Lisa! I love that you based this one off of a fun game you and Sweet P play!
