Yesterday I shared a graduation card with you that I had done either for my granddaughter or her best friend. Today, I'm sharing the second of those two cards and I still haven't decided who's going to get which one. :-D This one has an image by From the Heart Stamps and I'm also using the sketch from their challenge.
I colored the image with ProMarkers, then die cut it with a stitched circle die from Memory Box. I layered that onto black CS. The sentiment is printed, hand cut, and matted with a scrap of that same black CS. Since their school colors are blue and gold, I tried to keep to that color combo when designing the card.
The dp is from my scrap basket. I love that kind of argyle-plaid paper and I've used every single bit of it rather than throw away any of it. I still have one full sheet of it left but hesitate to cut into it because I just love it so much. It must be the geometric pattern -- those are always among my favorites because they work so well for masculine but also for girl cards.
The stitched ribbon is the last bit of one-yard sample I had in my stash. I added the yellow ribbon flower and the 3D grad hat for embellishment.
