Congrats To My Boy!

So, having Blogger problems just like me?  This post is a wee bit late but it was out of my control.  Hopefully, Blogger has their issues and problems taken care of as I realized many of us experienced lost postings and comments.  Oh well, that's part of being in a technological world!

Today, I'm sharing my project for TGF Farm Fresh Challenge Blog's - FFF.  Come join us as we want you to create a CONGRATULATIONS project/card.  It can be for someone who has just retired after many years of service, for a couple getting married, or for a graduate!  You get the picture . . .

I created a graduation cap/card for my son.  He will be completeing his first year of school as a Kindergartener in a couple of weeks and will move on to the First Grade in the Fall.  This cap was created using the Petal Cone die.  I just cut off the pointed end and the opposite end too.  Yep, I even made the tassel out of floss. 


Here's what the card part looks like when you flip it open.  I left a space for me & hubby to write a sweet message to DS!  Can you see Grad Ian?  I shrunk him down to about 2 inches in size.  You can get him as a digi {HERE}.

The card measures 3 1/4 x 6 3/4.  I scored lines at 3 1/4 & 3 1/2 to give the rolled up MOOLAH some room.  Kinda like a diploma.


Here's Grad Ian up close.  My son's school colors are BLUE & WHITE.  We are very proud of DS and all that he's learned and accomplished this year.  CONGRATS SON . . . WE LUV U!!!  :)


The FFF challenges runs until Thursday, entries are due by 12 PM CST.  The winner will receive a free single TGF stamp of choice!  Please upload your challenge cards to TGF Galleria> Farm Fresh Challenges 2011> Farm Fresh Fridays 2011> Congrats.  Good luck and have a Happy Friday the 13th!
