Graduation

Hi Everyone and it's Wednesday, which can only mean one thing, I am half way through my work week.

The card I am sharing today is made for Brody, Lloyd's grandson who is graduating from Grade 12 this year.  Brody is not the frilly type, so I hope he likes this card as it is somewhat gender neutral.  Graduation is a pretty special event in lives, as it is the end of one era and the start of another.  Where would we be without moving through our eras.

This card was cased from Nancy R http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/1682557 using my own intrepretation.  I really liked the colours, so stuck with them.

Recipe
Stamps: Starring You, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Paper: Basic Grey, Going Grey, Whisper White, So Saffron, DSP
Ink: Basic Grey
Accessories: Cricut Basic Shapes, Brads (other), Ribbon (other)


1. The card base is Going Grey and the dimensions are 5 1/2 x 4 1/4.
2. The DSP was layered on Basic Grey, ribbon attached and layered on the card base
3. The whisper white was randomly stamped with the Starring You image and the wording and layered on basic grey.
4. The stars were cut using the Cricut and attached to the whisper white with the brads.
5. Lastly, the sentiment was stamped using Basic Grey on the card base.

Well, I think I have some time to go and finish up another card...any excuse will do to get the ink on the fingers...ok, maybe it's relaxing, or gratifying, whatever it is, I enjoy.
 
So, until next time...
