Happy Monday!! I hope you have a great week ahead of you : )
We have a batch! of graduates in the family this year so I am hoping to get a jump start on making my graduation cards. This one is for my oldest grand son who is graduating with his Bachelors Degree and is headed to the "Big City" to begin work on his Masters.
My design was inspired by CAS(E) this sketch! Such a great sketch! with so many possibilities : ) I sponged some ink in the popular Ombre fashion and then grabbed my bran new "Skyline Border" die. I snipped the die in half and attached the darker portion of the city in the background flat on the card face and popped up the next section with foam tape. I cut my sentiment and glued it directly on to the top! Easy Peasy!!
There is still time to play along with CASE(E) this sketch! I hope you will enter your card in the challenge I can't wait to see how you interpret this fun sketch.
Thank you so much for stopping by and as always!! thanks a bunch for your wonderful comments! they really make my day : )
