This sketch is wonderful and very easy to use. I wanted to combine w/ the color combo, but I need another graduation card and this weeks colors just wouldn't fit.
My DH has 3 nephews graduating this year and this is the second card I've finished. I think I would have liked making a girly grad card, but girls are so outnumbered in this family.
I hope it's ok that I tweaked the sketch a little to make it fit my oversized image. I turned it on its side and made the side panels a little smaller to fit on the card.
The image is watercolored w/ markers and an H2O brush w/ silver highlights around the edge of the cap done w/ a silver gel pen. It's cut out and attached to a bugged panel which was edged w/ blue, then to a plain red edged panel. I stamped the numbers and the greeting and did the same edging on the two white panels. TFL

This is a great card. Wonderful take on the sketch challenge today. I have grad cards to make too. I love your coloring on the hat Really nice. The bugged background is just the right dimension. The outline gives it such great detail. Nice job. TFS
