Hello my lovelies! I have a quick card that I want to share with you all. When looking through my March/April 2013 PaperCrafts magazine, I saw this one card that just screamed to me to CASE it.
Here's my inspiration: It's the Grungy Congrats Card designed by Lynn Mangan.
And here is my take on it:
...and the inside:
I used Glimmer Mist in Sapphire and Graphite for the splotches. Instead of circles, I used a graduation cap stamp and checkers replaced the chevrons. I just loved the graphic/grungy look to Lynn's card!
If I've stepped on anyone's copyright toes, I do sincerely apologize. I'm not entering this for any publication, challenge or selling it. My intention was innocent and only meant to flatter. ☺
That's it for now. Back to housework (UGH!) Have a great day!
Chris

ReplyDeleteHey, it's a CASE. And you shared your inspiration - and you have TOTALLY made this your own! I am in love with the grad caps - it totally evokes tossing them in the air after the ceremony!
ReplyDeleteHey......it's totally A-Ok to CASE! That's what the inspiration is for! LOVE your take on that grungy look. Using the graduation cap image is just brilliant, and I love the checkerboard you used, too. Does totally look like the cap is getting tossed into the air! Awesome!
