Another Grad Card

It's Monday!!!  WHOA!  This weekend just flew by.  How about yours?  My husband and I celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary this weekend by enjoying some time at the Ames farmers' market and having some amazing Brazilian food.  It was wonderful!  We also celebrated Father's Day early since my husband will be gone for the actual day.  I think we did a good job of surprising him and, all in all, it was a great weekend.

Today, I wanted to share with you a card that I created using sketch #175 at CAS(E) this Sketch.  I have found this sketch to be really useful lately for birthday and graduation cards that I'm been busily making.  The card below is for my nephew-in-law (?).  Ha ha!  He graduated from Iowa State this year and we are SO proud of him!


Sorry if my photo is a little blurry.  I'm trying a new spot in the house and I was a little unsteady as I took the picture.  Ha ha! 

I used my Silhouette to cut the year in my gold cardstock before layering it on this crimson/burgundy colored cardstock.  Next, I wrapped a vellum strip around the card that I had stamped with Lil' Inker Designs Go Confidently Stamps.  I added some bling with glittery stars and dots.  I tried to keep it simple but fun.

I hope you are ready for a great week!  I'll see you around.  :)

Here's the stamp set I used today:

Lil' Inker Designs June Release Day 2


It's day two of the Lil' Inker Designs New Release Hop and I'm having the hardest time deciding what to share with you on what days because I think it's all SO amazing!  How's a girl to choose?  Lucky for you, you can get it all right now in the Lil' Inker Store.  How awesome is that?  Fabulous, gorgeous, awesome, they all pretty much sum up Lea's designs and hopefully you are coming here from her blog.  If not, don't miss out and make sure you start at the beginning of the hop, right here on the Lil' Inker Blog.  Now I get to show off some more goodies including the new Ombre Pattern Paper Packs.

First up, I'm going to show off Wrappers Delight: Sunburst Die and Go Confidently Stamps.



So, I had this cute little cupcake box in one of my favorite colors and I had no idea what I was going to do with it.  That is, until I saw the Wrappers Delight: Sunburst Die.  I decided this didn't have to be a cupcake box.  I could totally use it as a gift box for a special graduate that I knew would love it.  So, I grabbed my Go Confidently Stamps and set to work.  I cut the Wrappers Delight: Sunburst Die out of a fun yellow heart paper, stamped my sentiment, and attached it to the window on my box.  I used the wrapping idea of this die and wrapped it around the edges.  I love how it makes the whole box look special.  I liked it but felt like it needed a little something more.  So, I grabbed my Stitched Stars Die Set and cut some stars in coordinating colors.  I layered these on my box front and added a little bling to finish it off.  How cute will this be with a little gift wrapped in some tissue paper inside?  Just perfect!

Next up, I had some fun with the Go Confidently Stamps, Ombré Stripes Paper Pad, Party Pachyderms Stamps and Party Pachyderms Die Set.


Don't you just love the new pattern papers?  I sure do!  I used a piece from the Ombré Stripes Paper Pad for the background of this card and it is just amazing!  I paired it with a pocket scrapbooking 3x4 card that I had lying around that I knew would be perfect with some sentiments from the Go Confidently Stamps.  I positioned the sentiments on the card but it felt like it needed something even more to make it truly awesome.  I knew just the party animal to call upon, the Party Pachyderms Stamps and new Party Pachyderms Die Set.  I stamped my little guy in ombre ink to add a little more of that amazing look to this card.  Then, I finished the whole thing off with some gold stars and sequins.  So fun!

Here's a quick look at the products I used today:
