Graduation Time

Happy Wednesday. I hope your week is going well. We got some much needed rain over the weekend but are back in 70's now. I have been busy working on custom orders again but finally had some time to finish something new yesterday. Since graduation season is just around the corner I came up with this.

I started by using an SVG graduation cap file from My Scrap Chick and pink striped paper from a new kit by Amy Jaz Designs called I Like Stripes

The base of the hat was cut out of Papertrey Ink Black Cardstock then embossed with tiny dots. I made the tassel after viewing this video. I cut the letters using SCAL. Finally I finished it off with a chipboard button and a rolled rose.
I also wanted to update you on the Asian Lettuce wraps I shared in my last post. They were good but not very filling. Definitely not enough to eat for dinner but would be good for a lite lunch.
One more thing I want to share with you  before I go. To celebrate moms everywhere, the EtsyGreetings team is hosting one of their biggest giveaways in their history!The giveaway features more than 40 beautiful, handmade, all-occasion greeting cards made by EtsyGreetings team members. {only U.S. residents eligible for prize) Go here to enter. You have until the 23rd.
That's all for now. I hope the rest of your week is a good one and I will be back soon with more to share.
