Graduation Preview......

I made a deal with myself that the next cards I made would use this retiring designer paper "Storytime".  I had not opened the package and it does lean toward smaller children, but the pieces I used inspired me to use Chalk board.  I think these cards would work for any age and I love the Big Chief type tablet background on the second card.

This paper from Storytime looks like an old fashioned board many of us saw in grade school.  I used the Argyle embossing folder for a pop of Riding Hood Red texture down the side.  The sentiment from Pure Gumption was stamped in Whisper White craft ink on Basic Black card stock.  I used the smallest Labels Framelit to cut the mini chalkboard.  Basic Gray stitched ribbon and a Cap stamped in Riding Hood Red complete this card.  I used the Large Oval punch and the Scalloped Oval punch for the cap.

This card used the Tablet pattern of Storytime paper.  Sorry for the shadow, too late to start over!  This sentiment from Pure Gumption was stamped in Whisper White craft ink on Basic Black card stock and cut with the Apothecary Framelits.  The Banner was created with Hearts A Flutter Framelits and the 1 3/8 and 1 1/2 circle punches layered on Cherry Cobbler Bakers twine.  I used the reverse sides of these 2 papers.  The card  base in Very Vanilla.
