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.
