As soon as class was done I had to head home and grab a Jordan and my neice and get over to a grad party that was happening down the road. I learned last year, in planning Jordan's party that this is not the norm in other places, besides Michigan. So friday night, I was pretty much ready for my saturday class at Scrappin' & Stampin' when I had to whip up a very quick grad card. {luckily I had just grabbed diplomabella when I was in Bellaland!}
I did not, however grab any sentiment for graduation, so I made up my own.
Lil miss Jackie was an honor student so she got the golden sash, and Lakeland's colors are blue & white, so girls got the boring ole white gowns. I kept my card simple and classy, and yes that means Paula worked on it at the last minute! LOL
Well, my week is full already and it's only sunday... I have a class on friday night at Scrappin' & Stampin' and we are doing full KETTO cards. Or at least we will attempt to do them, 4 may be a bit adventurous at this point. My girls only got through 3 images saturday. Did I tell you I use LOTS of colors!!! Pulling the colors out of their stash is a major task and I need to have my list typed and prepared ahead of time for the girls. That we we have more coloring time, isn't that what it's really all about!!
I will be back soon with a fresh new sketch for friday's BellaRIFFIC challenge! see ya soon!!
Oh no don't tell me it's your sketch again!!! I have a headache already just thinking about it LOL!!!

This card is simply but beautiful. I am really loving the bella stamps. They are fun and they look classy. I can wait to see your card showing the new sketch. Hope you are having fun teaching your classes. I wish I could be there!

Love the design of this card - like the offset to the side. The stitching is so cool - just adds that extra dimension to the card. Love the shading in the background - that is something I hardly ever do, but need to think about doing. I hope you don't mind, but I think I am going to case this design. It is so awesome!
