Happy Graduation!

Hello again friends and thank you for stopping by.  The weather is beautiful here today, supposed to be a scorcher tomorrow.  I would offer you some lemonade and a comfy seat on my porch if you happened by my place.

Today I have a card for the challenge over at Sassy Cheryl's. They are looking for a card for dads or grads. I picked grads as I need a card for a young friend. I have been tutoring Hannah for the last year and a half and last Saturday she graduated! Her party is in a couple weeks and I'm so glad to have her card ready ahead of time! (I'm not always that good! lol) So anyway, I used the cute Callies Graduation Celebration. She is so excited to be graduating, kinda like Hannah :)

I colored Callie with my Prismacolor pencils. Her gown is blue since Hannah's was blue.

I used the sketch from Sassy Cheryl's last week since I never got a card made for last weeks challenge. It's a great sketch. It really highlights the paper I bought for this card. Hannah is not girlie. She can throw bales of hay with any guy and hold her own with anyone. Her favorite color is blue, so I figured I could slide all these flowers past her if they were her favorite color :) We'll see if it works! The flowers are from Wild Orchid. I added some light blue Stickles to the large rose. The small charm says: follow your heart, and that sounds just like Hannah.

Here's the inside.  I added Proverbs 3:5-6.  These are verses I hope she takes to heart and makes her own.  I stamped the corners of the writing panel with an old stamp from SU.

I used the same sketch on the back and you can really see the DP now!

I am entering my card in the following challenges:

I think that's about it.  Thanks for taking a peek!

Blessings & Hugs
