Congrats!

Hi!  I created another card using Retrosketches - rs #59.  This sketch was so fun and so versatile that had to use it again.

I created a graduation card this time.  Navy blue & gold are the school colors.

This one came together quickly - yeah, that doesn't happen very often!  I used the same banner dies from CSS, that I used on the card in my previous post.  A stamped sentiment, some gathered ribbon and some bling for the grad girl...and I was done.
Thanks for stopping in!

Supplies:
Cardstock: night of navy, more mustard (SU), white (PTI)
Ink: night of navy (SU)
Stamps: signature greetings (PTI)
Other: banner dies (CSS), navy ribbon (Offray), bling (Recollections), foam tape, scor-tape

Thank heaven for little boys...

Hey, back with a second post for today.  I hosted a Stamping Saturday for a group of my crafty friends.  We had so much fun.  Stamping, talking, laughing, eating a bit of chocolate and a few gummy bears.

Thank you Roberta, Kris and Cheryl for spending the day stamping with me!

I'm sharing one of the cards I created yesterday...in between the the laughing and talking :)

I used Retrosketches - rs#59 for my layout.  Their sketches are always fun starting point.

I made this card for a little guy that will be turning 2 years old in a few weeks.

I gotta tell you - this card was SO much fun to create.  So. much. fun.!  This patterned paper is a long-retired one from Stampin' Up!.  It's cardstock weight paper, which makes it perfect for using with dies.  And it's great for masculine cards.  I die cut all of those little pieces of clothing, then stamped them. Some are popped up with foam tape, as is the focal panel.  Ahhh...I really want to keep this one.  Does that ever happen to you???

Anyway, thanks so much for looking!  I hope you'll leave a comment.
