I had a chance to stamp a couple things this morning, not all of them I am sharing quite yet! But here are a couple fun ones:
This is for the Clean and Simple challenge on SCS, which is a sketch, and also for Dawn McVey's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #9, shown here:
Now, I don't have Grass Green, but I have Kiwi Kiss, and that's what I used for my CAS card:
This color is just so hard to photograph! Anyway, here it is in all its Kiwi Kiss glory; images are from Flight of the Butterfly, sentiment from Short & Sweet. Cardstock is Basic Black and Very Vanilla. Ribbon is SU's Pigtails and Valet....that was the last of them, they're all gone now!
Next, I was a very bad aunt and had not made my nephew a graduation card yet. He wasn't having a party, so it wasn't on my radar screen! A friend had given me a mortarboard cap template, (I also found it here on SCS) so I made him this one:
His school colors are red, black & silver; when you open the card, there is a pocket for a gift card or cash (hard to see here):
and I added a Bible verse on the inside flap:
Sentiment is from Hugs and Wishes; Bible verse is from CHF's Scripture Essentials 1--love this set, wish I had gotten it sooner! Some silver stars added a little interest. Of course, the check we enclosed will interest him the most! LOL! I made the tassel from red embroidery floss.
Thanks for looking! Tomorrow will be a new baby card.....hint, hint!!!
