Graduate Sally

This week's project for Sweet Stamping Treats is graduation theme and mine is Graduate Sally which is available at Sweet Stamping Treat Esty Store.

 

 Graduate Sally

Using white card stock and my Cricut Expression I cut a oval in the right side of the card.  I used Abode Photoshop 7 and colored in the background with the diplomas and graduate's hat printed.  I left the oval open..., added oval frames around the oval shape cut.  The image, Graduate Salley I colored and used mineral spirits to blend the color.  Added a ribbon and a sentiment stamped on white cardstock and punched with my oval punch.  Added some bling in the right corner and have a card for a girl graduate next year.

2012 Rocks follow-up

Remember when I shared a free file with you ... the 2012 Rocks.  One follower used the file for her family members graduation and I wanted to share the pic with you of what she sent to me.

 

I will copy and paste her msg here...

  I just cut out your 2012 Rocks and it is going to be PERFECT to decorate my paper cake slices!!! I just hope I have enough white card stock to make all the parts, LOL I purchased the cake file for my nieces wedding next year, so this will be a great time to try it out!  I can fill the slices with small candy pieces and each child can take a piece of the cake home with him and I can put 2012 rocks on the top of each one or every other, what do you think?  Then I will stand up the big 2012 Rocks on the top of the cake with black ribbon going around it (Colors are red and black).  "My" vision is amazing, but just making it look like my vision is a total different ball game, LOL http://mishaps-happen.blogspot.com

I apologize for being late in posting this...she created this on May 20th.  I believe it an awesome piece of work.... If u would like, run on over to her blog and let her know how u like it.

Thank you for visiting with me today, and hugs to all.

BAP #21 is....

this cute little Boy candy wrapper which I changed to a card base...for a Father's Day card for my son, Andy.  I was going to make 3 of these cards...but after this one....I got worn out from keeping track of all the little bitsy pieces...:-P

 

Now, I am not an artist...hee,hee.  The mouth is goofy looking but my sister, who I ask her opinion of my projects, thinks it is cute.  

Here is what the candy wrapper would look like (i.e. photo is Creative Kuts photo) 

 

Note the fold lines along each side of the boy...this is where it is wrapped around the candy bar.  Now...I could make this and send a Snicker's bar to my son, but Customs may not like it too well...lol.  This file is available at Creative Kuts 2 to purchase.

Thank you for stopping by to visit with me today, and hugs to all.  Working on a Father's Day file to share with u on Tuesday.

Graduation Hat Fun Fold Card

Color Challenge #7 for May 21st....

at Platypus Creek Digitals is a color challenge using the following colors....

 

Here is my card that I used with the above colors, or as close to the colors as my card stash would allow me...lol

 

Probably has a lot of names for the card style...I would call it envelope style or tri-fold card.  I used the colors along with a digital image from Platypus Creek Digitals.com, colored them blue and added bling to center of each flower.  The butterflies is from a punch I have (a three punch in one punch of butterflies).  Laced up the flaps of the card along with the insert which was layered over a piece of card stock of the blue color.  

Don't tell anyone, but this is my sister's birthday card...even though she seen the card and watched me make this card...my creating table is the kitchen table!! :-)

Stop by Playtpus Creek Digitals to have a look at the design team members  creations, and check out the challenger's creations as well.

Thank you for stopping by and have a blessed week.

As promised

here is the cut file for the sentiment "2012 Rocks" that can be used in a scrapbook page of a graduate's big special day, or for a card if it is sized smaller, or size it in large letters and backing to make a sign for the wall where the open house is held....

The Graduate's Hat is available over at Creative Kuts2 Store ... file is called Graduation Hat Box and includes a few more pieces than I have for $3.00...pretty reasonable, I say.  I'm planning to order the kit b/c my grandson graduates next Spring, 2013 and will be making up quite a few of these as party favors and table decorations.

Thank you for stopping by, and hugs to all.

BAP #20...Hat

This is the project that I completed for the BAP #20 at Creative Kuts Facebook group....

 

This is a Graduation Hat that can be created as a centerpiece for the Graduate's table for Open House party, and they can be made smaller.  The original file comes as 10.536x10.353 which makes a small hat...just big enough for 1 or 2 pieces of candy, etc.  I set the measurements at 12x12 which would be ideal for one or more table centerpieces, depending on how long your table is...or for the main table where all the eats or gifts are sitting.

It is something that I am contemplating for my grandson's graduation next spring, 2013.  All I would have to do is re-do the sign to 2013 Rocks....   will see what my step-daughter has to say about it.

I will be working up the 2012 Rocks as a free file later today and post this evening or tomorrow...depending on how the Internet services acts.

Go check Creative Kuts Group page at Creative Kuts and join us in the fun projects.  All u have to do is request the BAP for the week, work it up, and than post by 5 PST Sunday.  Than Monday mornings, approx project is posted on Facebook, and you e-mail your request for the file by Tuesday.  Than work and submit by the next Sunday evening.  She includes the projects in a video of the work sent to the group page.

Thank you for stopping by  and hugs to all.

Challenge #6 Flowers

This is the  Flower Card I created for the challenge over at Platypus Creek Digitals to look at other team members work. I printed the main flower 2.75x2.75 and used a technique I believe from StampTV coloring in the petals and than rubbing another ink color over the entire flower.  In Inkscape I used the same flower theme and created a background paper, colored the center brown/chocolate chip (Stampin! Up Ink markers) and left the rest of the flower plain.  Layered card stock on base, than used scrap ribbon and adhered to back of the next layers.  The sentiment is printed  and layered using foam tape.
