Well the Sketch Challenge seemed like a real challenge and I needed some Grad cards, so these are what I made. I did have to flip sides with the sketch and put that little bar (#4) at the bottom.
Two of my husband's nephews are graduating soon, so I really needed to get these made. I think the sketch worked out great & as long as I was making one, another didn't seem like a big deal. The only changes were the colors. I used the colors of their respective schools. I did find my new Misti purchase helped me out a lot on these cards. I used it to stamp the grad boy once with Memento (so I could color with Copics) but I left it just where it was while I colored it. Then I inked the image with Versafine & stamped on top. With solid images like this, it really made a difference.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups, the inside & the Copics I used are on my blog: The Write Stuff
