Yesterday we went to a graduation party for my husband's cousin Jacquie. She just graduated Saturday from Iowa State. I wanted to incorporate the school colors of Red and Gold.
I also used two of my favorite papers that are retiring - Typeset DSP and Fancy Foil Designer Vellum. I layered them onto the Very Vanilla and Real Red cardstock. I cut the numbers using the Big Shot and the Large Numbers Framelits. The graduation cap I cut by hand and attached with a dimensional. The candy dots were on the clearance rack last week but are gone now - sorry!
She loved the card and I'm so happy she did! We are proud of Jacquie and we're anxious for her to start her new job in Iowa.
I missed last week's challenge over at SU Only challenges (congrats theme!) but this week's challenge is using our favorite background papers. If I had to pick one, it'd be the Typeset DSP. I even ordered an extra pack just because I love it!
Hope you head on over to SU-Only Challenges and see all of the other great creations.
Have a great Tuesday!
