The Graduate - SSD Sponsorship Team

Hello blogland and welcome!  Today I have a card to show that I made for the new challenge over at Tuesday Alchemy that Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring this week, and the challenge theme is: "Learn With Joy".

The card I am going to show you is a card I was asked to make by one of my very most favorite person - my friend Karen.  Her son Bailey has graduated from Grade 8 and is shortly going off to high school - her little baby is all grown up!  The only questions I asked Karen before starting this card was what were his school colours and I was told Blue, Red and White and here is what I came up with....

Here is a look at the inside....

SUPPLIES USED:

* Image:  Sassy Studio Designs, The Graduate!

* Copic Xpress Paper & Kodak Hero Printer

* 5.5x6 Card & Envelope

* EK Notebook Boarder Punch

* Congrats Sentiment: freebie paper sentiments from a UK Magazine

* Inside Sentiment: Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, Snips & Snails Stamp Set

* ColorBox Chalk: Charcoal

* CreativeMemories Square Punch to makeflag look on the inside sentiment

* Zig Glue Pen

I had originally planned to show you a picture of my friend Karen's son Bailey, however my silly laptop is not allowing me to crop and edit the photos that I was sent to use.  The reason I chose this image to use for Bailey's Grad card is because the image looks sooo much like him - just was a perfect image to use!

I hope that you enjoyed this post and maybe I even inspired you to create a project and enter the challenge at Tuesday Alchemy!

Until Next Time, Keep Crafting!

**TIP:  If you use Spellbinders Nestabilities maybe you feel the same as me, I find the sizes are two far apart to double mat with so, what I did was cut out both my patterned paper and my cardstock the same size, then i embosed the patterned paper so that I have a line to cut around it with scissors so that I had enough space to show a mat behind the shape - let me know if this tip is helpful to you!
