Graduation cards

No challenges for me this weekend. I did make a couple of cards though. I had an order for a couple of graduation cards and am still working on the 15 thank you cards I have do but only have four of those left and still a couple of weeks before I have to have them all done so I decided to do the graduation cards since it is coming up.

The first card is 6 x 6 and modeled after a card on Lena Katrine's blog. Her cards are so awesome and inspiring, they are just gorgeous. Go check out her blog here. I used Elisabeth Bell's Pen Pal for the image on the card. The colors are a light yellow, lavendar's and a purple. I colored them using my Copics (now have a full set -- hurray!!). I used some flowers, ribbon and buttons to embellish the card. I also added some glitter to a few parts of the stamp.



The second card is a tall card, 4 x 8. I used some papers from my stash and used blue, green, yellow, and oranges. I added some flowers, ribbons and brads.
For both cards I made matching envelopes and decorated the outsides to match.
