Design Time Thursday! Graduation!!

Thank you for joining us for our new challenge! We saw some Beautiful Mother's Day card projects during our last challenge!  We appreciate you joining us and hope you will join us for this next challenge!

Theme:  Graduation!

It is so hard to believe that graduation is upon us! The school year went so fast! My girls only have a few days left then we are out for the summer!

 For my project I decided to make a photo frame picture plaque.
 It will fit a 2 X 2 1/2 photo.

First I removed the wire handle from the wall hanging and using Black Soot Tim Holtz Distressed ink I covered the entire piece.

Then I measured out my layers of paper, sanded the edges, inked them with walnut stain and attached it.

I took a chipboard embellishment and covered it with paper, stamped it and inked the edges. These mini graduation brads fit perfect!

I think the sentiment from Studio G is just hilarious! The Tassle's worth the Hassle! (Heat embossed)

I then fussy cut the word graduation out of some paper, sanded, inked it and added to the top.

I took the normally bright and fun ribbon and heavily distressed it to match the entire piece, then using my tiny attacher I knotted and stapled them together.

Cathie with the CCR supplied the Design Team with some great paper, ribbons, a wall plaque, and embellishments to work with for this challenge. Here are the supplies we received:

We hope you will join us and Submit your new project for a chance to win a prize!

Aloha! It's a Luau!

I am trying to convince my 9 year old to have a Luau Party for her 10th Birthday! So I pulled out my Luau Party boxes to show her the skirts and pineapple cups to try and sway her my way. While I was in there I found some strands from an old luau skirt so I decided to use it instead of tossing it away!

I found this wall plaque at Micheal's for .15!

I inked all the edges and covered it with the pink Hawaii paper. 

I had to dig deep into my paper stash! I knew I had this paper from a few years ago.

The pineapple cup is from Life's a Beach Cricut Cartridge

I used a straw that I bought from the CKC Mesa Convention

The yellow raffia is recycled from a grass skirt

The pink raffia I found on clearance at least 3 years ago! 

The Aloha is a chipboard piece from Joann's

Using my stash! Whoot Whoot!!
