Good Morning Bloggers!!!

It is my DT day over at 

3 Girl Jam

And I am super excited to share by card with you today.

It is back to school time for a lot of kiddos.

My guys start the day after Labor Day

but it is this time that we are getting school supplies,

back to school clothes and haircuts.

I thought I would make a card to put my son's 

lunchbox on the first day.

I bet he would get a kick out of seeing a personalized card....

a note to say

" Have a Super Day"

I have been trying to figure out new ways to use this awesome

3 Girl Jam Crinkle Ribbon...

 So using my 3 Girl Jam Bow Maker

and 

Tuxedo Crinkle Ribbon

I made a double bow and inserted it into my tag from front to back.

I did secure it with super strong tape on the back so it wouldn't move

and made for me a different kind of tag.

Supplies Used:

CardStock~ Kraft, Bazzill and PTI

Designer Paper~ Me and My Big Idea~

first day of school

Cut Files~ School Bus, Tree and Frame~

Silhouette Store

Sentiment~ Jaded Blossom~

Super Hero

Extra's~ 3 Girl Jam~
