Grad Slider

This week Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring the weekly challenge at Artistic Inspirations Challenges (#100, that's right 100! ).  This week's theme is "Anything Goes". I thought with this being "Graduation" time of the year, I'd make a Graduation card.  I also decided to make it a "Double Slider" card.  I don't remember where I first saw how to make this type of card, but I've made a few of them in the past.

You Did It Grad

I love making cards. But sometimes it's fun to make something different. As a Design Team member at Sassy Studio Designs I participated in the "No Cards" challenge at Craft my Life.  I thought with graduation season here, what would be better than a photo holder for the new Grad. And since I'm a grad of Penn State and my Dad is a professor at PSU, that's the school I went with.

The pic would go in the black space (where my camera is reflected). It's made for a  4x6 picture. 

It was a lot of fun making something other than a card for a challenge.

The layout is from Split Coast Stampers Wednesday card sketch #436.

I made a graduation card using this image same last month for a challenge at "Crafting When We Can".  See it here.  When I color images, I like to color a couple at the same time. That is why both are colored the same. And it's my school's colors.

Come join the fun at SSD PCP.

Congrats Grad

Time again for another challenge at "Crafting When We Can".  Check it out here.  Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring the challenge again this time.  I decided to make a graduation card and make it personal.  I used my high school colors (blue and gold).  Sydney is a friend of my niece. She's will only be going to the 7th grade next year, but it was the first name I thought of for the card.
