I hope you are having a great day...today I am very excited to be the GD over at CASology. I love this challenge and play along as often as I can to exercise my CAS muscles :) Here is the cue card for this week:
I was a bit stumped at first as I haven't needed to make graduation cards (yet) and my supply of specifically graduation themed stamps is non existent. Then I thought about blowing the dust off my Brother Scan n Cut machine to find a graduation themed cut file.....this is what I came up with:
I found a free mortar board cut file and sized it for my card front before popping it up over some black glitter card. The sentiment is from Waltzingmouse Stamps. It really is as simple as that! I think the black glitter card adds a bit of visual interest and I like the clean lines of the icon.
One of the boys asked if I would give it to them for their graduation but given that is about 10 years away I might make something else before then!
I hope you like my attempt at a graduation card and play along at CASology this week. The DT always have lots of amazing inspiration to get you started :)
Thanks for stopping by,
