Congrats Grad Part 2

Here is the other spawn of my ugly graduation card! Haha! My brother-in-law is graduating from med school next month, so I needed another grad card anyway. I liked the Ballet Blue and Kiwi Kiss combo, but I needed to "guy" it up a bit. I have no idea when or how I found this site, but it is awesome for coming up with Stampin' Up! color combinations! You can find pre-designed ones, or mix up colors yourself to see what looks good! That's what I did to come up with this more manly palette.




Still loving the layout from Weekend Sketch Challenge #79. I think I might use it for an upcoming swap I'm doing!

Congrats Grad!

My sister is graduating from college this weekend (WOO!) and of course I had to make a special card for her. I made this card in a totally different color scheme first, but it definitely did not look right for a graduation card. So I decided to simplify once again, and just use my sister's school colors! (Ironically enough, red & white were also our grade school AND high school colors!)

I used Weekend Sketch Challenge #79 for my layout. This is another one that is going into my repertoire of favorites!
