Girly Graduation Card

Hya,

Happy wednesday to you. How are you in craft land? Me, I have had an ordinary couple of days really. Done course work that seems to be multiplying on it's own accord.

I thought i would show you a card i was asked to make for a friends graduation. My friend had seen the 'Well Done' card i had made in the summer and asked me to make a more girlier version for her daughter. Now this i could do...Pink, sparkly and having some bling.

I have used some Bridesmaid Speciality Papers that are now retired. (which is a real shame!). I did the sentiment on the computer and then framed it with the Frames with a Flourish stamp set. The ribbon is from my old stash which I am trying to use up so i can buy lots more s.u goodies.Lol. To finish off i have used the Stampin' Up Jewels which i love. They are so much more sparkly than others i have used.

Here is another take on the same card but this time finished off with a Filigree Brad. What do you reckon? Nice eh?

Well, I am off to prep for saturdays class. Lots to do so little time.

P.s Have you seen the new album from The Boys? It's called Gravity and it's great. Check out the pic on the right, I love it....

Have a good rest of the week.

Wedding card

Hya,

Oh my goodness, where does the time go? I can't believe the weekend has come around so quickly. I'm sorry i haven't posted mid week I just seem to have been chasing my tail. I have had a few orders that have needed my attention this week.

I do have a card to show you. A friend of mine went on holiday to Las Vegas last week. While she was there her partner proposed to her and they got married whilst they were there. All totally unexpected. How amazing is that. So I had seen a card on Vicki's blog-Blue Jelly (thanks for the idea vicki) that is just perfect for what i needed for the happy couple.

This is my version,

I have used the colour Pale Plum ink that has been brayered on to the Bridesmaid Speciality Papers. I then layered the papers on to Whisper White. I then stamped the Mr & Mrs with the stamp set Mr and Mrs. I know, that sounded gibberish.! I don't know if you can tell but the & has been embosed in silver. The ribbon used is the gorgeous Whisper White with some Elegant Eggplant ribbon for a contrasting colour. The pin is from the Pretties Kit with the beads to finish it off.

Here is a side view so that you can see the embossing. That's it for now. Thanks for looking.
