Graduation card


My nephew graduates from high school tonight. His class colors are lime green and black, so that is the color scheme I used for the card.

I used Gable Green cs for the base card. Then I made a sheet of polished stone using 2 shades of Radiant Pearls and a gold Marvy Metallic Marker.

It is mounted on black glossy card stock.

The "congratulations" is from SU. The cap and diploma is a stamp from I Brake for Stamps.

May COTM


This month's Card of the Month theme was shoes. I had to buy a stamp set from I Brake for Stamps as I didn't have any shoe stamps.

I used two Technique Junkies techniques for this one. Triple Play and Altered Designer Paper. Hope my partner likes it.
