Graduation Card

 I had a request for a graduation card for someone who had done a vetinarian course and this was only the 2nd graduation card I have ever done so hope it was okay.

 

Now the truth is a made a card even too a pic so I have actual proof I made it-went to take it to the person concerned on Friday and can I find this card ??? can I heck have gone through everything in my craft room and nothing so this was a hasty last minute replacement -so now i suppose the original will turn up now!!! 


The B.paper was from my scrap drawer-the sentiment was cut from an Art By Marlene pad -the mortar board hats were a free google image resized, fussy cut and put onto 3-D foam pads-the dog and cat stamps were craft mag freebies.

Butterfly Shaker

 My post today is actually 4days late sorry ladies and is my last post for Simply create Too.

The challenge is make a shaker card and this card was practically made with leftovers -the two pieces of scrap paper from stash and I stamped on them with some craft mag freebie stamps -the top piece of cardstock I found already with the aperture cut and aceatate and 3-D foam pads already in place for another project but unused.

The Chocolate Baroque butterfly was already stamped on the smooshed background so just cut down to fit and stamped the Chocolate Baroque sentiment on an offcut and whilst looking for something to put in the haker I found these little flat black butterflies in a drawer-had them for years -so more neglected stash used.
