I am currently making up some graduation cards amidst all of the sawing, hammering and comings and goings of the construction crew at the house. It has been a crazy couple of weeks here.
Here is Marion's card
and here is mine
I started by using a PTI tag die that I cut from white linen CS from my stash and then used a Memory Box teeny butterflies die across the top of the tag. I stamped a PTI sentiment in Smokey Shadow across the bottom part of the tag and then inlaid the butterflies that I had cut from my water coloured sheet. I also cut a graduation cap from Smokey Shadow and affixed over the circle fastener on the tag. The CS front is SU Baja Blue and I used a polka dot EF on it. The little grey and white polka dot strip is a scrap piece that I added for a little foundation. Pretty easy from this wonderful inspiration! I think I will make up another with some pink and coral butterflies :)
Thanks for stopping in and have a great Monday!
