Double Trouble

 It's a special happy anniversary to the Double Trouble Challenge blog -6 years! Congrats! It's a fun challenge site, always entertaining and written up cleverly. 

There's always 3 parts. For this one, I'm choosing only Thing 1 and entering with a graduation card. I needed to make a graduation card for my cousin, so really, not much of a challenge on my part; it did, however, kick me in the butt to get it done. Haha. Kraft didn't seem appropriate, so.....

Here's my card: 


I decided to take a non traditional approach to this card as there are no graduation theme elements to it or school colors. 

The butterfly border and little die cuts are Crafters Companion.

Number dies are The Stamps of Life

You are all kinds of amazing is from the A colorful life designs stamp set named Amazing. BTW, use code VanessaFan10 on their website for order savings


Congratulations stamp is Pink and Main.

I also sprayed the card with fairy fluff from Lindy's stamp gang.

They had a special sale (over now) and card challenge to send in birthday cards: Blog link up is anything goes by June 1st and the special card challenge is a mail in by June 5th.

CCCC 29

Hello! I have a card to link up for the Caffeinated Christmas card Challenge blog #29


My card I created:


I used the newly released layering stencil called Coffee Time with the Seasonal Icons stencil add on to go with it. It has a variety of icons, but for this card I chose to use the Christmas tree and this flower pattern.

Word die is TSOL.
