Navy and White

I am not here often as we are in the RV and internet access is not good - at times uploading to my SCS gallery goes more smoothly, for some reason.
I used Nesties dies, a Sizzex EF, and a stamp by Hampton Art, using navy ink.  I added sheer ribbon and white metal brads.  I am not sure how much will show, but the white circles were the ultimate in recycling - I used some cs that had been unintentionally printed with a colored bg (pale blue).

CAS pastel

CAS cards are the most difficult for me.  I forced myself to keep this clean!  The strip is a CB border die, and I added bits of the negative to highlight the sentiment - I got a bit of ink in the wrong spot!  The sentiment is a 7 Gypsies library stamp - this has a dozen sentiments and is my go-to stamp for small sentiments.

Another white, black and red

I used a CB border die, and Cheery Lynn  wreath border which I cut to make the trim at the right.  The vellum flower is a Spellbinders die - all backed with Swiss dots embossing.  The image has been in my stash ( a gift), and the sentiment is7Gypsies library stamp.

Another Graduation - Leah

This is my second graduation card - two granddaughters, one HS, one college - same family, same day, hundreds miles apart.  what a problem.  I used a photo of her high school.  Sorry - the L got tipped and I did not notice - too many things going on right now.  I will fix it!  The DP are both Basic Grey.  THe mortar board is a chip board sticker.

Anna's Graduation

My apologies for this scan - not sure why it looks like this.
Our granddaughter will graduate from her university in a week.  She has been student teaching this semester and will be looking for an elementary school teaching position.  We wish her all the best in this.  She has also been with several choir tours (church, high school, college) so I wanted to include the music.
I used her college colors and seal.  I have had the Cuttlebug die for a while and this seemed a good time to use it. The image is a Bella.

Bless you

This RAK card is for a man who has severe health problems, but his faith is a big help to him.  I hope it will encourage him.  The Scripture is a digi, and the sentiment was sent to me.  I used a Halloween scene (Sizzix) for the tree, and covered the pumpkin with the sentiment.  The green cs and DP are from Amuse.  I cut the corners with edging scissors - used an inverted scallop.

Emerson in red and white

I have procrastinated in doing this red and white card, as I was trying to think of something that did not look too much like a Valentine or Christmas.  This Emerson works well for that color combination.  I added dots to her dress with the gel pen.  The dp is not quite spots - they are tiny stars.  This is DP that I have had in my stash for several years - and I had scraps just the right size.  The bg is a new swirl folder.
