Freshly Made Sketches #33

Hello friends! Tonight I am entering this card in the Freshly Mades Sketches #33 based on the sketch from Jen Mitchell below.  We have several family members and friends graduating this year (including my son - gulp!) so getting my cards done for all of them has been foremost on my mind this past week. This card covers four of my family member's school colors.  I also made several more with a black and white theme for all of the other graduates.  This sketch was a great one to use for mass producing cards!

Here is the inside of the card - that black piece is actually a pocket I created that a gift card (or cash) can slip right into (sorry, I didn't have a g.c. or cash on hand to pop in there to show you how it looks - that is the next thing I need to get done!).  I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder. 

Gonna make this a short post tonight as I promised myself I would get to bed at a decent hour for a change.  Even though this card has several layers it will still only need one stamp and no special handling to pop in the mail.  Thanks so much for stopping by - I'm sure glad you did. I hope you liked my card and saw something that inspired you.

Supplies (all from Stampin Up!):  Cardstock - Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, Not Quite Navy and Basic Black.  Patterned paper - Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack (Regals collection - Cherry Cobbler stripes, and Neutrals collection - black dots).  Sentiment is from Word Play.  Graduation caps were printed from My Digital Studio. I colored the sentiment with my Stampin Write markers using Basic Grey, Basic Black and Cherry Cobbler.  I sponged a little Not Quite Navy around the circle with a finger dauber.  I used the 2 1/2" circle punch for the sentiment.  The sentiment inside is from a retired set - embossed with white embossing powder.
