Hello.  🙂  Welcome to the April release Hop & Shop with My Favorite Things!  If you’ve just popped in here, you might want to go back to the beginning with Kim.  If you’ve just come from Jessie, then you’re right where you’re supposed to be.

Before I go into the details of my card, I’d just like to say that I did not start out intending for this to look like a July graduation.  (lol)  It just kind of happened as I went along.

You Did It!

I’ve used Grad Girl from MFT’s Pure Innocence line.  I was a little worried about coloring her cap and gown Royal Blue.  I think darker colors are harder to shade, but I added bits of W7 and 100 (black) and I think it turned out ok afterall.

I die-cut stars using MFT’s Stacking Stars Die-namics and used the Notebook Edge Die-namics to create the torn edge and perforation on the note paper.

On the inside, I split the sentiment so the words would appear to be “written on the lines” as opposed to just “stamped on the paper.”

ALL of the new sets and Die-namics you’ve seen previewed this past week are NOW available (here).  But first I hope you’ll continue on with the hop.  THEN shop. 

Your next stop is with JEN! 

Thank you SO much for visiting!  Have a great night, and happy shopping!  🙂
