Congratulations Graduates

 

I have a couple of graduation cards today. Both use the same sentiment.

CAS737 - Encouragement

For my first card I used my Cricut and cut out a graduation silhouette. I then sponged the silhouette in red and left the center white.

I then stamped the sentient in the silhouette and added a few scattered hearts.

Graduate 1

For my second card I used a cap stencil along the left side of the card.

I then stamped the sentiment in red and layered on red card stock.

This card was finished with a few clear sequins.

Do you have a favorite? I like them both for different reasons and people.

FS844 - This week's incredibly talented Featured Stamper is Heather Bowen aka Heather.B Her gallery is amazing. I found this INSPIRATION.

I just love the sweet image of the pup and had to do a card.

I used this Whimsy Stamp image and added a thank you sentiment to it. I then dug in my black scraps and created the layout using black paper scraps.

This will go in my monthly donation box.

IC905 - Dans le Lakehouse and Pinterest where I found this INSPIRATION.

That little dog was perfect for me to use up this cute die cut dog for a very quick congratulations card. The dog is popped up on dimensionals and then I white heat embossed the sentiment.

SC952 - This week's sketch on splitcoaststampers.com

For my card I used a scrap paper to create the sun rays on the card base. Next, I die cut the clouds, sun, dog and bowl and layered adding dimensionals to some of the layers.

I finished with the sentiment and a few Nuvo Drops.

This is another of my pet donation cards.

I was asked about the dog die cut. It is an older die cut from Amy Designs.

MMTPT767 - Favorite Technique / Style

NAR23VSNG - Leftovers

Recently I have focused my style to use up a large amount of scrap papers. It has really been fun looking for ways to use up some of the scraps.

For this card I dug out my yellows because yellow is a very happy color and I thought it would be perfect for this week's recipient. I created the herringbone technique on the base then finished with the Hello sentiment and a few scattered flowers.
