Missing You
>> Tuesday, May 28, 2019
Hi Everyone,
With Memorial Day behind us on the calender, it's the unofficial beginning of summer, so I have mini summer like scene on my card share today.
Leonard, from the new Leonard Pig Flies a Kite stamp makes an appearance here. I stamped multiple hot air balloons from the 4 in 1 In the Sky stamp to complete the little scene. I embossed 1/2 of my background with kites, and added some die cut clouds to the blue half to mimic the sky.

For a sentiment, I stamped the new Missing You Pig Time inside one of the frames from the Wooden Frame Collection stamp, fussy cutting it and attaching as you see here.
I needed to make a masculine graduation card, so I chose the Follow Your Dreams stamp for my main image, which I then colored, die cut and matted.
Neutral colors are always more masculine to me, so I created the background using the Grad Hat Hooray and Splatter Background stamps in black and brown ink.

Before attaching the image, I added a strip of splatter stamped cardstock that was layered on to a punched border, and wrapped with some matching twine.
Again, twine more masculine than ribbon to me :) And since the image has a sentiment right on it, I was able to call this card done!
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Karin, some great sketches and great ways to use all the fab images. I totally love the clouds and the kite embossing folder, and I am amazed at how great the grad hats look with the splatter bg. Brilliant designing here! Hugz
Love these cards, Karin. Great elements & design on the Leonard card. So clever to stamp the greeting in one of the frames from the last release! Love all the clouds & hot air balloons too. Terrific grad card with the follow your dreams sign & all the grad caps flying through the air!
What a happy summer Leonard scene!! Excellent coloring - love the rainbow of balloons in the sky! Great Grad card too - definitely has a male feel to it :) The splatter background adds a great touch to the grad hats and the sign post if one of my favorite grad images - especially since it isn't really a grad image!!
Two more beautiful cards Karin! I especially love the graduation layout! Love the circle with the sign post! What a great card! Your kite one is cute especially with the kite embossing and all the hot air balloons with Leonard flying his kite!
Fab, Karin! Love your kite card..the colors, the embossing, the clouds..it's all wonderful Your grad card is so full of celebration & glee.
