Graduation Time!

Hi everyone!
 Graduation is right around the corner for 2 of my favourite people! Both my Nephew and my Cousin's Daughter (I like to think she's mine on loan to my Cuz, LOL) are graduating from Grade 8! I have no clue where the time went, as I  remember like it was yesterday when they were born! I'm not getting older am I? 


I used the set from Your Next Stamp called Grad Kids. It has the 2 images as well as 2 sentiments in the set. I coloured the images with my Copic Sketch Markers, and then fussy cut them out with detail scissors. I added some ribbon and twine to each card. I thought for my nephews card He would appreciate the twine, as it's not so "girly" LOL. I added some YNS Gumdrops to finish it off.



Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, R20
Hair girl: E31, E33, E35, E37
Hair Boy: E43, E44, E47
Hats & Robes: N3, N5, N7, N9
Blues: B24, B26, B28
Reds: R24, R27


Just a simple inside of the card using one of the included sentiments. I stamped the sentiment with embossing ink and then sprinkled silver embossing powder on it. I used my heat tool to set the ink and powder.

For The Fella's

Hello Ai Fans!
Today starts a new Challenge over on the Art Impressions Blog called "For the Fella's". I decided to use the Ai stamp set called "Weekend Warrior" (sku# 4378). This guy just makes me giggle as it reminds me of my Hubby all decked out when he decides to fix something! I think he just knows that I like it when he wears a tool belt LOL! I raided his garage for a few small nuts to add as an embellishment.


Here's a picture of the inside!

I just love these dies from MFT called Die-namics Tool Charms! I think they add the perfect touch to finish off this card as well as my "stolen" nuts!




Copics used:
Skin E00, E11, R20
Shirt: BG93, BG96, BG99
Pants: B95, B97, B99
Boots: E33, E35, E37, E29
Hat: E33, E35, E37
Gloves & tool belt: E97, E99
Hammer: E31, E34, Silver Wink of Stella 
Drill: Y15, Y18
Screwdriver: R24, Silver Wink of Stella
Ground: W0, W1, W3, W5

I hope you'll play along in our "For the Fella's" Challenge! Head on over to Art Impressions online store and see all the male themed stamps you could choose from!
