The Last Graduate

I really mean it.  It's another shaped card because I had run out of steam at that point.  So glad to finally get all of these cards completed.

Another Graduate . . . Are we done yet?

Not quite, just a few more, I promise.  This one is for another graduating high school senior.  I pulled out my Papertrey Ink chevron stripes die for the first time and picked papers that matched her school colors. 

The stamp is from Verve and I stamped it no less than three times!  The first two times I did it perfectly, only to smudge it during assembly.  Drove me crazy!  So there are a few small smudges on the final one, and I just couldn't bring myself to do over again one.more.time.  Sometimes you just have to call it done.

The Class of 2014

Masculine graduation cards are hard to make.  Well, mascueline cards period.  So, I was tasked with coming up with something for the intern that works at my office who is graduating from high school in a few weeks.  I used the school colors, and kept it fairly simple.  Print and cut helps in that regard, and I gave it a little dimension as well.

Another day, another Graduate

You are going to see quite a few of these cards over the next several days.  It occurred to me this weekend that I have at least four more to make.  Three down, one to go.  Every year it seems I always make one of these graduation cards into a shaped card, and this year is no exception.  This came along very quickly, I think was done in less than an hour.

Here Comes the Graduate!

My niece is graduating from college today!  Four years in Florida's hot sun and she is calling it done.  I am hopefully not too uncomfortable sitting outdoors for the ceremony today.  I guess that's why they hold these things at 9:00 a.m.  That said, I am very proud of this young lady.  She has accomplished some great things.

How Many Graduates Are There?

Quite a few!  I personally know three, including my next door neighbor.  So, the graduation card parade continues.   I made this one when I was finishing up my minibook album for our Blog Hop earlier this week.  DCWV's Always and Forever stack has that regal type paper that is appropriate for such an occasion   Of course I had to add my favorite silhouette image to it because I'm me and I think they are so cute.

Happy Graduation!

Our neighborhood was buzzing today with graduation parties.  Everywhere I went today it seemed I was running into graduates or parents of graduates, and everyone is in a festive mood.  With that in mind, I have the first of a couple of graduation cards I have prepared for friends this year.  This one features DCWV's Violet Leaf stack, and some glitter paper from one of their 4 x 6 stacks.  It's a very simple design, and I just adore the Silhouette graduate shape.  Too cute!
