Blue Grad Girl

Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! Continuing the DRS Challenge theme from yesterday "Grad School", I have another graduation card. Be sure to check out the challenge...you can make either a graduation card or a card using your school colors, so you have lots of options here! These were not my school colors, but I remember a number of schools with blue & gold colors. Both of the new grad images, girl & boy are perfect for my out of the box technique. And with the images already in a circle, it makes it easy to add more circles to frame them.

After stamping her, I added a bit of color w/ Copics & added 3 more graduated (pun intended, lol) sizes of circles behind her.  I stamped a graduation background on the turquoise layer & used an embossing folder on the horizontal band. Some sequins were added for a little bling. Kind of reminds me of confetti.  Just a portion of the Grad Saying was stamped on the greeting flag, so I stamped the rest of it on the inside of the card.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!



Supplies:
stamps: Female Graduate, Graduation Background, Grad Saying
paper: white, turquoise, cobalt blue, yellow
ink: Memento tuxedo black, Hero Arts neon blue
accessories: Copic markers, Spellbinder circles die, MFT fishtail banner die, Lifestyle/Quickutz embossing folder (nautical set), sequins
