Aggie Girl {graduation card}

Well whatya know?  I finished the other graduation card today! 

So if you're from Texas you are plenty familiar with the rivalry between Texas A&M and The University of Texas.  I decided to play with some school spirit for this particular card.

Here'a a closeup of my favorite craft medium...glitter.  {giggle}

You'll notice I used the swiping technique on the letters.  Again I used the long and narrow style of card.  In hindsight I wish I would have used the barn wood pattern from the Dakota papers where the Whisper is--maybe next time.  ;)

September Workshop: Part Two

 Well I have finally finished my second workshop project.  It's a note pad holder using the Tri Fold card.

I have to say with all honestly, my son climbed up into my lap this morning--fresh from sleep--and helped me pick the color palette.  I love it!  He also helped with the brads and bow....

I used the Swipe Stamp Technique on the bike.  HERE's a Youtube link that shows you how.

This is the little note pad, with a cute stamped sentiment on the first page.

And here's the view from the top.

At this workshop, attendees will get the leftover paper to take home and create more stuff!!

I'm hoping it goes smoothly--it's been quite a while since I've done one of these....
