Graduation Girl

Hard to believe it is that time of year again...graduation!  And, that Jarek has been out of school for a year.  He has done well at the community college and will be attending University of Tennessee next year.  We are a little proud of him 😊  

He recently went back to to visit some high school friends and took this card to a friend who will be graduating this year.    I really love how this card came out.  The background is probably my favorite part.  I used the Starburst technique...it is becoming one of my favorite techniques.  

I colored an image from Saturated Canary with Prismcolor pencils.  

I added a pack of Jolee's stickers and pretty ribbon to finish is off.

I am so glad to back at my card making.

Graduate Girl in Red

I love how this card turned out!  I made it for a very special girl.  I had the joy of caring for her when she was much younger.  She and Jarek were buddies.  We moved away when they were both 4 years old.  Through Facebook I have watched her grow into a beautiful young lady.                                                                                                                                                      I used an older image from Saturated Canary; unfortunately, she is no longer available.  I am glad I have her, she is my favorite image to use for female graduation cards.  I colored her to resemble the graduate.  The back ground is the starburst technique using pretty scraps.  I added a punched border, pretty ribbon & flower in her school colors, and a black rhinestone swirl.  I hope she likes it as much as I liked creating it for her.

More graduation cards to come!
