And here is the Graduation card that I am entering in Michellemybelle's challenge.
It was inspired by her Mojo Monday 232 file. You can check out Michelle's blog here: http://michellemybellescreations.blogspot.com/. She is celebrating have 100 followers with some challenges this week. I hope you have time to spend exploring her posts. She has many beautiful projects.
All of these cards were made with Distress Inks and Tim Holtz Stamps. I did the blue backgrounds by applying ink directly to a brayer, and rolling it onto cardstock. I kept adding layers until it looked right. On the Father's Day cards, I added a collage stamp background in a medium brown over the blue ink. For the Grad card, I added some water droplets. I used black Adirondack Archival ink on my stamps. The tags elements and "Dad" lettering were cut with my Black Cat Cougar.
I hope everyone is having a terrific holiday weekend!
