NEW TOYS!!! I picked up a few goodies the other day and I'm so excited that I already had some time to play with them. Today's Free for All Challenge is to make a graduation/congratulation card without the usual cap/diploma/owl F4A119 - Congrats & Grads - 06/01/12 by Wendybell at Splitcoaststampers. You should join the challenge; it's a lot of fun!
I started with a piece of white cs and tried out my new MS Caning Pattern punch (cool punch design that allows you to punch on any part of a page!) down the center. I also punched a strip for the horizontal bottom of the inside of the card. I like the Asian feel to the lattice design. I then used my new Sizzix Flourish 9 die to cut the Wild Wasabi flourish/vine and punched some tiny flowers in Pink Pirouette. I added Liquid Pearl centers to the flowers and stamped my sentiment along the other side and my non-traditional graduation card was finished!
