Card "Create"tions Celebrations Week 2 Saturday Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Week 2 Blog Hop, I am so excited you are here!  You should be arriving from Melissa Davie's awesome blog Rubberfunatics, wasn't here project great!!!  Be sure to hop all the way around, you don't want to miss a thing!! 

For Week Two, I used Adventure Awaits for my card set.  I love the fabulous bold greetings, this set is perfect for both cards and scrapbooking....fun favors and projects too!!  With graduation being around the corner, I went in that direction and made a small gift and card.

Don't these sentiments fit graduation perfectly??!!  Their adventure awaits, so why not give them a journal to record it in?

The Kraft Grid Journals from the Annual Catalog are such a great size!  Perfect for a pocket or purse.   What better way to record your goals or thoughts when you are out on an adventure!  To make this bold journal, I first stamped Gorgeous Grunge on the cover in Memento Tuxedo Black.  A piece of map from Typeset is added with adhesive and washi.  Lastly, a bold adventurous greeting heat embossed and grunged up makes the journal complete.

I could have stopped with the journal, but what about telling the graduate how proud you are??  So I created a pocket card with the same map paper and the Mini Treat Bag.  I mimicked the journal and did another bold sentiment heat embossed and grunged up. 

The card inside has yet another bold sentiment, the Class of 2015 a la carte set from the Occasions Catalog.  I wanted a little more detail, so I added in "So proud of you" from Crazy About You....now I'm happy!!  This unique card will make any graduate smile!!  You could even pop a gift card in there to make them smile bigger!!

Now, off to another adventure, the next blog!!!  It's time to pay a visit to Debbie Henderson's awesome blog Debbie's Designs to see the fabulous idea she has for us today!

A Shaker for the Graduate!

Ok, how about one more shaker card??  I figured we might as well squeeze one more in this week!!  Today's combines a couple of great stamp sets to create a fun shaker for graduation.

What graduate wouldn't love this bold shaker???  Even better is the awesome message inside from Adventure Awaits.

 I have been working with Adventure Awaits a lot over the past week or so, it's the card set I created for Week Two of Card "Create"tions Celebrations for Create with Connie and Mary (it went live today!).  I love the bold larger than life greetings.  This one in particular is perfect for graduation cards or scrapbooking.

The shaker portion is formed the same as the card on Wednesday with vellum and washi tape.  The sentiment in the center is from Blue Ribbon on page 136 of the main catalog.  I layered the sentiment with a bold Basic Black starburst and added the congratulations tails.   A couple of Silver Foil stars make the card complete.

I hope that all my shakers this week have motivated you to give them a try!!!  These flat shakers are perfect for mailing and so easy to make!!

For more graduations ideas, be sure to stop back tomorrow for the Saturday Blog Hop for Card "Create"tions Celebrations.  I am featuring Adventure Awaits and I know you will love this great gift idea!  Until next time, Happy Stamping!!!
