Hats Off to You!

This weekend my niece, Madeleine, graduates from high school.  I still can't get over that she will be going to college in the fall. Time certainly flies and I am so proud of her.  My mum had also asked me to make a card for Madeleine and her neighbor's son.  A trio of graduation cards...all using the same Clear & Simple Grad stamp set.

First up...my card for Madeleine.  Playing along with two challenges:  CAS-ual Fridays and Just Us Girls. I thought the rainbow with a little bling was perfect!
My second card...for my mum's neighbor.
And my third...more bling!  This one is for Madeleine from my mum....
Which one is your favorite?

Super cards Lynn... I think my favorite is the first one:) Love the rainbow of colours and the scoring.

Tough call as they're all awesome... I think the first one wins out though as I do love a good rainbow! The scored lines frame it perfectly and the bling gives it just the right sparkle! :)

Barb said...

Love all three, Lynn!

Arlene said...

They are all really nice but my vote goes for the first one. Very eye catching and beautiful! Great job.

Wonderfully fun grad cards! No way am I going to pick a favorite but I do really like the fun rainbow of grad hats on the first one :) Clever way to use all those colors! Great job with bringing the bling and I'm happy to have you play with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
