OSAAT Back to School

Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well :-) Here I am with my DT card for our challenge at One Stitch at a Time this week where our theme is 'Back to School'. I was given this fab silhouette digi by Stitchy which I cut round and mounted on My Minds Eye papers which I backed with dark brown cardstock. I then made a patchwork background to echo the moment in the digi, and added a wide border backed with the same cardstock as the focal point. I then embellished with large buttons.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Penny's Paper Crafting Challenges: Back to School
There She Goes Stamps Challenge: Back to School
Craft Your Days Away: Anything Goes
Bloggers Challenge: Back to School
Raise the Bar: Back to School
Simply Create Too: Back to School
Cute card Thursday: Back to School

Thank you for looking and for your lovely comments, I really appreciate them :-)
