14 Apr Paper Sweeties April Release Countdown!
Hello crafty friends! Did you enjoy the Designer’s Blog Hop yesterday for day #1 of the April *new* products release here at Paper Sweeties? I think the Design Team girls wowed us with their fab-u-lous projects … what do you think??!!
For today’s project, I dressed Emma in a cap and gown outfit from the *new* ConGRADulations! stamp set … now she’s ready for her graduation! I made this card for my son’s girlfriend who will be graduating from the teaching program at Campbell University next month – their colors are orange and black! Creating and dressing little Miss Emma was made quick and easy peesy when using the Emma Sweet Cuts die!
I colored the cap & gown images using Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol, and then I added a Creamsicle Sequin to the middle of the cap to hold the tassle. I stamped two of the sentiments from this cute set onto a frame I cut using the *new* Beautiful Little Wishes Sweet Cuts die set and added a border image from the Live Love Laugh set!
I created a sentiment ‘frame’ using sentiments from the So Proud of You stamp set and then finished things off by adding a length of Licorice Baker’s Twine, a sweet jingle bell and a teeny tiny bouquet of roses for the graduate!
For more FUN inspiration, continue on the hop so you don’t miss a single minute of today’s creativity and fun from the Sweeties Teamies:
