Bloggers Challenge-Tie it Up

My Blog Candy (three winners) HERE thru 12/19

I interpreted this challenge .....loosely......  Tying up loose ends........

 One of my daughter's dear friends did not have a grad party....so I made her a card...more than once,
but my daughter would need a card and would use it.....  Well, it got so late, the kids all went off to college and I still had not sent a card (blushing....).  So........I decided to wait and send the card before Christmas- what college student would not love $$$ at Christmas time???
 So- tying up my list of kids that needed cards from June graduation......  I have to admit- this card fits her better than the other cards- the image with the long hair is perfect and I added more purple.....I hope she likes it!
 I used a digi from Bugaboo and colored it with Copic Markers.........The background paper and sentiment are digi's from Create with TLC. The digi paper is printed on the text weight Cryogen White cardstock, so it has sparkle in it....and purple is for Northwestern where she attends college. The ribbon is from the Target $ spot : ) . I used Wisped Frames technique I learned from the Technique Junkies- what did we do before that technique???  I added the ribbon and the punched edge to balance out the card.

 To play along with bloggers challenge, add your card to Mr Linky below.  And, stop by and visit our challenge 'Mom's Blog'  HERE.  We play JFF (Just for Fun) and there is a lways a challenge theme to inspire your stamping.




Have a great day!

There is never a bad time to send a kid cash! This is a cute, fun card, and I bet she will be thrilled that you were STILL thinking of her.
