Rascal!!

             So, Grammie, do you think I can get any closer to you????? 
  This is Rascal, my "grand-cat".  He HAS to be everywhere that I am!!!  I have a nice blankie for him in 3 places in my craft-computer room.  He keeps on trying to get closer!!!
     I found a new image from Sassy Studio Designs, this is called "Cassie's Graduation."
My Longest, oldest BFF, Mary Lou, her youngest daughter Amanda is graduating from High School. Her color looked like Navy Blue from the invitation/announcement. 
I used my Copics, shaded with Pebbles chalk, Used Brilliant Blue CS, the dp is SU, but I don't know the name of it. The sentiment is from  Elzybells, which I stamped in Brilliant Blue. Added some glittery Primas.
 For her tassle, I took a strand from the tassel on the invitation/announcement and used it to make a tassle, added a button brad. (The only white one I had.)   This image actually prints out about 7" high, her whole body, and I could not for the life of me figure out how to shrink it.  Nothing worked.  I have done it many times on all of the other digital images, but not this one.  So I cut her off at the waist!!!  I saw this image on Kathy's Blog.  I would have loved to do her in Purple, but I was sticking to the graduation theme!!!  In real life, her eyebrows and lips were darker. Here they look washed out!!
   Well, I am off today for Hunter's 6th Birthday party!!!   I will be sure to be back and posting pictures.  I haven't seen him since Nov 20!!!  I am so excited!!!

Secret Sister #4 Unusual Fold card

Image
Here is my Secret Sister Challenge #4. We were to make a card with an unusual fold.  I'm not sure what this fold is called. I have made it before, but this time seemed a bit more challenging!!  I hope you can tell that it is PURPLE!!   I hope my SS likes it.  I did emboss the flowers, sponged around the edges and added bling! She does like bling!! The paper is SU Lavendar Lace, and Gina K Vibrant Purple. I used Stephanie Barnard's the Stamps of Life , Thanks 2you, for the flowers, and Banners 4all for the "hi". This is the partially opened position. I added 2 Primas and a rhinestone brad. This is the open position. I hope my SS likes this one. I LOVE the colors myself!!! Here are the dimensions if you would like to try the card yourself. 1.Cut an 8-1/2 x 11 peice of cardstock in half lengthwise. 2.Score at the dimensions marked. Here is what it looks like when scored. I cut the contrasting color 1/8" smaller.  This card has a circle tha...
