Kaisercraft DT - 2 Cool 4 School

Good morning everyone....and welcome!
 
Today I'm back to share my DT work for the last release for this month,
2 Cool 4 School 
 I am a little late on posting this one....a long weekend away has put me behind the 8 ball, so to speak!
 
As the name suggests, it is a school themed collection....perfect for scrapping all those yearly official school photos...or any other school photos you may have.
 
I have stuck with the school theme, scrapping a photo of my daughter's 'official' Prefect photo..
 
"School Prefect"
 
There's lots of red, blue, green, yellow, black & white in this collection....so I'm sure there wouldn't be a school in Australia whose colours would not suit!  I have added some splashes of co-ordinating mists onto the outer white bits of the background piece, Mathematics,
which I also turned on it's side
 
 

No flowers on this one! lol  Just pieces from the collectables pack...stickers etc etc.
 

 
 

I also added a few coloured metal paper clips....keeping in with the school theme :)
 
 

The 2 Cool 4 School stamp set has heaps of cool stamps...lots of stayings, a pencil, ruler etc
I have used the 'class of' stamp & then used the individual numbers to make up the year...2001.
 
 
Next I've created a cute little pencil tin....
 
Using a used, but washed, tin that I would have otherwise chucked out...I first coated it in gesso...both inside & out.  Then simply covered with paper & decorated with stickers, paper strips, Collectables pieces etc...and finished it off with a couple of die-cut doilies & some cute little mini pencils that had, tied together with some twine.
 
 
Here's a couple of close ups...

 

And of the back area of the tin....the strip of pencils is from the sticker sheet.
 
The 2 Cool 4 School  collection is available at All About Scrapbooks HERE
 
 
Thanks so much for dropping by today! xx
