A Graduation Card for my Nephew

I don't usually make or post cards with non Stampin' Up! product but I needed a graduation card in a pinch and don't own any graduation sets. So what was an easy solution?.... I purchased the Go Graduate Plus stampbrush set for My Digital Studio! And in case you didn't know it, all MDS image files can be used with other photo editing software programs such as Photo Shop.


With no time to send the project off for professional printing and my printer not being configured for Stampin' Up! colors, I just printed some sentiments, added some stickers bought from my local scrapbook store, and wallah!


To give the card a personal touch, I used the school's colors: black, silver, and purple. The graduate plays in the school's jazz band as well as with a professional group off campus. He's a very talented young man and we are quite proud of him. So for one more personal touch, I added a guitar sticker on the inside. (I'm really wishing I owned the stamp, Extreme Guitar) Guess what's going back on my wish list.


Thanks for looking,

Melissa
