Class of 2016

Graduation time will soon be upon us, so today I have two cards for a couple of gals that will be graduating in May.  The school colors are Red, White and Black, so that was pretty simple to put together.

Here is card number one for my Boss' Granddaughter.  I can't believe she's going to soon be graduating and heading off to university.  It seems like she was just born!

Recipe:  
Whisper White Thick Cardstock - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Real Red - 5 1/4" x 3"
Neutrals Color Collection (polka dots) - 5" x 2 3/4"

Large Numbers Framelits - Whisper White Thick Cardstock
1" Square Punch - for hat
Balloon Framelits - for tassel
Gold Foil Sheets (tassel) 
Big News Stamp Set (congratulations) stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black

Inside Sentiment:  You're So Lovely stamped with Real Red

When I cut out the 2016 for the first card, I did my best to place them perfectly so I could use the cut out for a second card.

Real Red Base - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4
Whisper White Thick - 5" x 3 1/4"

Stamps - You're So Lovely (banner and congrats)

Inside sentiment - B.Y.O.P.

Thank you for looking in today!  Have a Blessed Sunday!    ~ Donna

Birthday Boy Number 2

Happy Birthday Robert!

Wednesday, February 25th my baby turned 29 years old.  That simply can't be possible!!  I can't be old enough for a 29 year old child!  Tonight I'm meeting him for dinner and we'll spend some nice quality time together!  I can hardly wait (is it 5 p.m. yet?)

So today, here is his birthday card for you to see.

Recipe:
Bermuda Bay:  8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4"
Whisper White: 5 1/4 " x 4
Bermuda Bay:  4 5/8" x 3 3/8"
Birthday Bash DSP:  4 1/2" x 3 1/4"

Sentiment:  from B.Y.O.P. on Whisper White:  2 1/2" x 1 1/2"
Bermuda Bay:  2 5/8" x 1 5/8"

Inside:  Whisper White 5 1/4" x 4"

 

 

Now all I need is to get some cash for him to spend!  Thank goodness it's payday week!

 

Thank you for looking in today!

B.Y.O.P.

You read that right... B.Y.O.P... Buy Your Own Present!  How many times have you given a gift card as a gift and wished you had a perfect card to go with it?  Well now you can make the perfect card for every occasion!

Beginning January 6th you can purchase the set B.Y.O.P. and begin making fun gift card cards!

Here is one of the pairs of sentiments from this set:

 

Inside:  SPENDING!  I also added the HAPPY BIRTHDAY also from the same set.  So many ways to use this great set.  You're going to love it!

 



Inside the set is Birthday, Graduation, New Baby, Thanks, Wedding and for no reason at all (or any reason not listed).

Don't forget the envelope, add some DSP to the outside flap.  It makes it so much prettier than a plain envelope, don't you agree?  This DSP is Birthday Bash Specialty Designer Series Paper.  Just wait until you see another card I made with it - I'm holding it back until the recipient receives it, so I don't ruin the surprise - but there are two pieces of paper in the stack that has shimmer gold elements!

 

Thank you for looking in today.  Have a blessed Sunday!
