Hi friends. Today I’m sharing a graduation card made with a couple of my favorite dies from Cheery Lynn Designs along with some pretty ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon. I know for some parts of the USA, graduation is all but a fond memory, but here in the Northeast, school is still in session through the third week in June, so it’s weird for me to think graduation before now. If it’s too late for your area, you can always switch up the sentiment and use the same card design for another occasion.
My design is pretty easy to see. Lots of layers that I love built up on a 5-1/2″ square card base with some mulberry paper tucked in between to soften things up. Some pretty tea roses, some ribbon and a bow and it’s done!
DL280 Royal Scandinavian Doily
My bow was created on my Bow-it-All V3.0 using White and Electric Blue Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

I love your cards. I subscribe to your ribbon club and love all your ribbon, and I have your Bow-it-All. But I have to ask you a question. Lots of times you state your sentiment as from Create with TLC. I love some of your sentiments but I can never find any you have used. When I go on the site for Create with TLC, none of those stamps look anything like what you have. Do you use old stamps? Could you please give links to your sentiments too? Thanks.
Thanks so much Micki. I’m so glad you like me cards and your Bow-it-All. You may be looking in the wrong company store. There are a couples places with similar names. Create with TCL (you can google it in this way) sells digital stamps and sentiments. If you click on the store link from the blog it will take you to their website. I looked in the graduation section and this digital stamp set is still there. I assume you will find most if not all of the digis I use because digis are very rarely discontinued. If you can’t find it, shoot an email to Paulette and I’m sure she will pop it up there for you.
Fabulous card !!!
Thank you for playing along at Brown Sugar this week.
We look forward to seeing you again next time.
