Hello! Popping by this evening with a few first cards to share with you using the BRAND NEW Simon Says Stamp Born to Sparkle Release ! I'm starting off with a set of a few graduation cards - right on time for the season! My oldest is actually graduating this year (so crazy how fast that day arrives!) - so I was definitely in the mood to create a few of these cards using the awesome new Class Act stamp set!
I traditionally think of black graduation robes most often - but thought it would be fun to shake up the colors a bit, and do some different color combos. I stamped these three cards using Schoolhouse Red, Blue Jay, and Hot Mama inks from Simon Says Stamp.
For each of these, I stamped the sentiments over the top in black, and then heat embossed the diploma in white on black, fussy cut out, and adhered on my card front.
I also added a few splatters of black with my Pinkfresh Studio Licorice Liquid watercolors, then matted those panels with gold cardstock, and then black cardstock.
Before mounting with foam on my cardbases, I added some thin strips of black cardstock, just to give some interest and dimension to the backgrounds. I used different angles on each card as well for a bit of variety!
