I am getting an early jump on some graduation cards! I made these two super quick, same layout too, basically. I have several nephews and nieces and great nephews graduating this year, so getting ready! And this set makes it super easy, love that! I created a little pocket inside to insert some money too. I will show that another day though. :D Up next we have the new 'One Free with Three set called You've Got Style...here is what I have done with this set today:
I tried to make the card look like runway lights on the dress, to make it go along with the fun saying, lol! I think this makes a fun kinda encouragement card for a friend!

You are so clever! Always enjoy your inspirations - and never know where you are going to lead!
Wow another black/white fan. The Graduation cards are great and the dotted punch line brings out the saying. I never remembr to use a beige with the black and white but it is an awesome combination. The style dress image is a true show stopped. I love how you blotted the black to really give the dress a nothing waist ( ugh)
Great graduation cards! I like the fashion card and it's animal print!

I love any combo that has black and red ( as I sit here surfing in my red sweater with a black belt!)
I like the fact that you turned the border upside down on the graduation card and added embellishment; makes it look "royal." Thank you for sharing you skill with me. I also look forward to seeing who wins the wonderful set of stamps;)
