For the Graduate
Here's a quick CAS graduation card that I made for my niece. Just perfect for this week's CAS-ual Fridays challenge. I went with my favorite standby layout for a great CAS card -- using impressed images and scoring for detail. You can see more cards that I made like this HERE and HERE.
I used her school colors and a strip of metallic paper that I trimmed off of her announcement. The "memories" stamp is from Inque Boutique's Circle It set. The red layer is a 1 1/2" circle punch stamped with an image from PTI's 2009 Autumn Tags set and the little sentiment is from PTI's Mixed Messages.
Here's a close up:

Unique take on the grad challenge. I love that embossing. Hey, I just realized you're a Hawaii girl, just like me! ;)
Oh cute! Love the subtle embossing. Thanks for playing along with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
Oh Sara, aren't you clever to use a strip of metallic paper from her own announcement?! Such a classy touch. And you KNOW I love that debossing that you do. Perfect. I'm so glad you joined us for CAS-ual Fridays.
Hi Sara,
Congratulations on winning the top talent award at Our Creative Corner several weeks ago. I sincerely apologize for the length of time it has taken me to contact you about being a guest designer. Life has sort of gotten ahead of me lately, I guess. Once again, I'm sorry to be so delayed. Please email me at thefunkiejunkie@gmail.com so we can set up a date for you.
