Graduation

Hello all my crafty friends!!

It has been a few weeks since my last post.

I have still been busy crafting, but have fallen behind

with posting my projects!!

I will be sharing some recent projects for the next few days.

Today, I will be sharing a couple of Graduation cards I made.

I made this card for my gradndaughter

who graduated from High School last week. 

This file was from the Silhouette Store.

The sentiment is from Jaded Blossom Simple Sayings 3

This card was made for my daughter who graduated

from University of Phoenix.  This file is from Designs by Cloud 9

Thanks for stopping by, and please come back :)

Here is my project

My Winter Cardinal is a file

from Designs By Cloud 9, I believe

it was a freebie!!

I added a strip of brown paper

on the left side of my card to represent

the tree because the branch looked

funny all by itself!!

I embossed the branch and tree with

the Cuttlebug Woodgrain folder and

the blue paper was embossed with a

snowflake folder.

I added lots of stickles in

Xmas Red to the berries

and Crystal to the snowflakes.

I also added Snowflake Embossing Tinsel

to simulate snow.

My sentiment is from

Jaded Blossoms Christmas Wishes stamp set

and the banner if from the Mini Tag dies.

 

And I hope you noticed that Nana

if we get to 300 entries, so what are you

waiting for, link up your project!!

I am sorry that I just could not get a good picture of

this card, the glitter and shimmer paper are hard to photograph!!

The wise men are from Designs on Cloud Nine.

The sentiment and banner are from My Craft Spot.

For this tag I used a tag shape from the

Silhouette Store and the reindeer is from

SVG Cutting Files.  The banner is from

the SIL store, sorry not sure which stamp is

used for the sentiment!!

And of course the cute face is Peachy Keen.

This tag was cut using a Spellbinders die, some punches
and I think the snowman hat is from a Cricut cart,
not sure which one, I had these cut in a drawer!!
And another cute Peachy face.
I scraplifted this idea from tags
my bloggy friend Sherrie
made last year.
