Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a Congratulations or Graduation card. I went a little untraditional with my graduation card, but I think this would be a great card to give to that special graduate. I used some of the scraps of the Cupcakes and Carousels DSP pack to create a basic background. From there I added a sentiment from the retiring Friendly Wishes Stamp Set. The card seemed a bit plain, so I added a couple of punched butterflies. It's hard to tell from the photo, but the butterflies were stamped before punched. The stamping adds just a bit more texture to the card. I finished off the card with some coordinating sequins.
