TE Blog Hop








I made this card for my brother who's graduating next week from Medical School! I'm so proud of him and all that he's accomplished! I used the sketch below from Taylor to do the card because I thought it would look great with the stamps from The Places You'll Go set.  I used SU colors: Not Quite Navy card base and matting, topped with Always Artichoke. I used two cuttlebug folders on Bashful Blue and Close to Cocoa. I stamped the image and sentiment in Memento Rich Cocoa and colored the image with prismacolor pencils. Then added some bling and called it done.
