Life is Good for a Graduate...BBTB Challenge

Here's a LO I did for a BBTB challenge months ago but never got around to posting. The challenge was to use Life is Good from Graphically Speaking. I used Alphalicious for the other lettering which I welded together with CDS and added a shadow.

For the cap I used a tutorial that I came across and can't remember where so I can't give credit were it is due. Sorry! It uses George and Basic Shapes.

I though it was really cool how the school did the senior pictures. They did some with proper attire and then some with what teenagers will wear. We really liked how this picture came out and so did AJ, so it became the one for that pose. So I thought I would use this challenge and picture for another scrapbook page from my future in-laws:



I inked the edges of the cap with Frosted White pigment ink:


Recipe:
-CS: DCWV "White Texture" and MM "Smooth Cranberry"
-PP: SandyLion "Graduation Caps - Clear Foil"
-Cricut carts: Graphically Speaking for Life is Good cute at 3 1/2" and
Alphalicious for Senior Year 2009 cute at 1 1/2" welded with a shadow and
George for the Grad Cap; triangle @ 2 3/4" and a cylinder at 1 3/4"
-Misc: DMC Floss #902, Colorbox Frosted White Pigment Ink

TFL!

Finished product!

Finally finished Adam's graduation card, I already had the cover completed for Taylor's Cupcake Challenge #18, but I still wanted to to some finishing touches to the inside and of course I can't do a card without glamming up the envie as well! Check it out here!

Smiles & hugs to all the graduates out there!

Adam's Grad Card and Taylors Cupcake Challenge #18

Finally!! I was able to make a card for Taylor's Cupcake Challenge #18 and actually have a cupcake on it (3 actually!)

One of my good friend's son is graduating from high school this weekend and thought Taylor's sketch was the perfect design for this one. Here is her sketch for Taylor's Cupcake Challenge #18 (THANKS Taylor for these great sketches!):



The grad cap is made using George & Basic Shapes which I got the directions from A.Paperdoll on the Cricut MB, I don't know her name just her sign-on name. Scroll a little down on her post and you'll find the directions. Thanks to whoever A.Paperdoll is!

So here's my take on Taylor's sketch:
