Oy! What a way to start my day… first, I wanted to share my niece’s graduation card. Sami is my youngest neice and is graduating with her degree in arts. She is a very gifted photographer. We are heading down to her graduation party on Sunday and will be celebrating Mother’s Day as well.
Why oy? Well, Wednesday I got a call that my mil is in the hospital. Nothing life threatening, but at age 82, most trips to the hospital are a huge deal. We’re praying she is released in time for Sami’s party.
Ok, back to the card. Sami is artsy person, so I went a little non traditional on this card. Since yesterday’s challenge was to use chipboard and i don’t have much, I chose to monogram her card with a great big S. I covered the S in basic grey blush paper and roughed up the edges a bit.
Here’s the deets on this one:
Stamps: Birdie and Branch by Verve Visual; Sentiment by My Favorite Things
Colors: (I’m using up scraps here!) Chocolate Chip, Cameo Coral and Basic Grey Blush DPs
Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black
Accessories: brads, ribbon, chipboard, scissors, nail file, slit punch, scissors, paper piercing tools

Now on to today’s sketch challenge! I went with one that will work well as a tall card, square card or regular card. Simple layout, but lots of possibilities!
