The Cupboard Trilogy July Challenge

 The challenge for The Cupboard Trilogy Design Team and now for anyone who wants to join for this month was a sketch. I have never done a sketch other than to get a basic idea of what I want to do and then go from there. This time I was supposed to follow the sketch! Well, there's a first time for everything.

Here is the sketch...

And here is my interpretation...

I wanted to make a graduation card for a girl who loves her horses and was part of a horse club all through high school. She can also be a girly girl and I think I was able to incorporate both into this card. 

For this card I used the following Stampin' Up! supplies:

• Paper: Whisper White, Basic Black and Pink Pirouette card stock; dsp from unknown source
• Stamps: Horse Frontier and Love & Laughter (sentiment)
• Ink: Early Espresso and Concord Crush (retired)
• Punches: Photo Corner (retired), Itty Bitty Shapes, 1 1/4" Square, Scallop Border
• Other: Delicate Details Lace Tape; Basic Rhinestones; Pink Bling from unknown source; White Uni-ball Signo Gel Pen; Paper Piercing Tool & Mat; Dimensionals

Believe it or not, I made a card yesterday and forgot to take a picture of it before I sealed it in the envelope:( I will try to re-create the card next week to share with you. 

Well, today I am traveling home so don't know if I will get home in time to do the Sunday Night Chit-Chat or not. I hope you are enjoying the last day of your holiday weekend!

Happy Graduation Heidi!

I kept getting a glare from the flash when trying to take this picture. The label says, "Happy Graduation". Heidi, who we have known since she was five years old, graduated from college today and we are sooo proud of her! I made this card to send. The card design came from Debbie Henderson at Debbie's Designs. What a great graduation card idea!


For this card I used:

• Card stock: Basic Black, Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler
• Word Play stamp set
• Basic Black Classic Stampin' Pad
• Punches: Owl, Word Window, Scallop Circle, 1/2" Circle, 3/16" Corner 
• Dimensionals, embroidery floss

The picture at right show the card on the back before opening. This card was so much fun to make but super easy. You could easily make several of these in a short amount of time.

Okay, are you ready for it?!!! The inside of this card is so cute!

Well, what do you think! I think Heidi will really like it!

Have a great day (even if it IS Monday)! Kat
