Stampin' Sisterhood Sept Challenge SS#21 AND 25% off!!

It's the first Sunday of the month and that means Jacquie has the Stampin' Sisterhood September Challenge up!  This month she has an inspiration photo for us - appropriately enough - the theme is school!
I was inspired by the ruler and primary colors in creating my card today.
I used the fun Rubbernecker Alphabet Set #3  and a piece of ruler twill from Michaels.  I also added black rhinestones symbolizing 1...2...3.   I adhered the red, orange and yellow strips to another piece of card stock and then cut the panel with a Deckled Mega Rectangle Nestability.  I layered it to a piece of black card stock with foam tape to give the impression of a blackboard in a classroom!  To finish it off I adhered the ruler twill along the bottom with ScorTape.

You have all of September to link your challenge card over at the Stampin' Sisterhood blog where all the details will also be found -  just click on the challenges tab at the top of the blog to take you right to the current challenge!  You could win a Rubbernecker stamp of your choice!  We hope you'll join in!

There's also a big SALE going on over at the Rubbernecker store through Sept 5th!  (which just happens to be my birthday!)  25% off all accessories - think Tim Holtz, Spellbinders, Memento Inks etc, etc!!
I'm also entering this card in the CCEE challenge  and CAS-ual Fridays Challenge-  back to school!
