A Graduation Card

A Grad card for the daughter of an online friend. The hat and gown are popped out and the hat has 6 swarovski cyrstals, the diploma has the sides punched with edge punch, the flowers are punched, glued together and then have a swarovski crystal on top. The black background is embossed with the numbers cuddlebug embossing folder. The seal was made by hand cutting the edges of the round punch out and then colored with a gold paint pen. The honors cord is a some fiber I had bought in a bunch off of an etsy seller, and of course the Anya digi stamp was colored with my copic ciao markers, the hair was a challenge Im sitll perfecting my blending, and trying to match the graduates hair color was a challenge, I had to do it twice befor I was happy with it.

did you just see him hit me, did you!!


what is wrong with these cousins of mine, ugh...


the girl who just LOVES eggs!!

Its an obssession I think

Crafting things, Ive never been big on it before really, no time to be, nor do I have the time now to be, but it seems to have taken over my thoughts, my time, my money...

I have two more to share today, though this first one I just can't seem to feel finished with, not matter what I do...



supplies: card stock, tape runner adhesive, flower embellishments found at my local Fry's/Kroger store, pearl accents from Michael's, pink chalk edge and papertrey ink 10 little toes stamp done with dew drops chalk ink, paisley embossing done with cuttlebug embossing folder, scalloped edges cut with nestabilities. Pink embossed flower also done with papertrey ink stamp.


and this second one I love in person, the simple beauty of it doesn't quite come across in pictures though, and maybe, just maybe Im a bit bias in this case anyhow, since I love sunflower stuff. It is just awaiting a stamp to finish it, Im not sure yet what Ill use, maybe a sentiment if I can find some that run up and down rather than side to side...




supplies: cardstock, leaf ribbon (I wish I could recall where I purchased this, LOVE it), adhesive, rectangular and sunflower nestabilities and cuttlebug, copic marker for sunflower dots.
