I made this card a few months ago, but life has just been so busy that I am just now getting around to posting it. I was made at a time that families all over the country were celebrating graduations. This year my family attended the college graduation if our oldest daughter, and of course, this special occasion called for a special handmade card. However, I wasn't particularly feeling a traditional graduation card - I wanted a much more feminine and slightly elegant feel. This is what I ended up with and I couldn't have been more pleased. And who would have thought a stamp set from Inspirational Flourishes would be perfect for a graduation card? It is amazing how versatile many of the stamps really are.
I followed the Make It From Your Heart, Vol. 2, Pattern #22 with only minor adjustments. This is a list of what I used to complete this card:
- Card stock (Kraft and Blush)
- Ivy Lane Paper Pack, X7178B
- Ruby Chevron Ribbon, Z1846
- Ivy Lane Assortment, Z3001
- My Acrylics Stamp Set, Inspirational Flourishes, C1581
- My Acrylics Stamp Set, Causal Expressions, D1525
- Exclusive Inks Stamp Pad, Smoothie, Z2196
- 3-D Foam Tape
- Opaques, Mocha (a retired item)
Here are a couple of pictures to give you a close up view of some of the details on this card.
This is a quick peak inside the card - which is always a fun place to add a bit of additional embellishment detail.
