Grad Frame

Welcome!


I actually had a lot of fun finding just the right stamps to fit inside our new Wooden Frame and in the end it's the hand holding the diploma that I like best :)

I started my card by stamping our new Wooden Frame on white card stock and then on a piece of scrap so I could make a reverse mask. I covered the 3 bottom openings first and stamped the Congratulations from our Grad Saying.  Next I covered that opening with scrap and removed the covering from the center left section and stamped our Teacher Tools and then did the same with the last 2 sections stamping both our Grad Tassel and then just the hand from our Male Graduate but you could use our Female Graduate as well.  Once I removed all the masks I colored everything using watercolor pencils and a blender pen.  The most time consuming part of the whole card was finding just the right background :)  I tried several stamped backgrounds that just seemed too busy and a couple of plain ones that were too plain.  I finally decided on my favorite swiss dots embossing folder.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
