Graduation

Yay, it's Tuesday which means that tomorrow is my day off! I do love only working 4 days a week, not so keen on the effect on my bank balance though, but it does mean that I only ever have to cope with two days at work before a break.

Are you bored of pixie powder backgrounds and crazy birds yet? Today's card uses the left over bit of background from yesterday's card. I think I'd sprinkled a couple of colours of the pixie dust on top of the star stencil and spritzed it with water and then placed a sheet of card on top and rubbed it down, meaning that the stars remained white, but some of the water pooled around them. I think I've got 10 colours of pixie powders, they do have a label on them showing the colours, but I've found a few extra colours in some of them than are shown on the label. I'll try and do some swatches to show you.

I stamped the scroll and hat from the crazy things set and die cut them with the matching dies. I coloured the hat with a dark blue/grey copic marker so that the black stamped details were still visible. The sentiment is from a TPC set called, unsurprisingly, Graduation and the star is from that set too. As usual a bit of doodling to finish off.

Now, I have to ask you all a favour, will you all just sit on your hands for a bit? I'm still trying to catch up on commenting and you are all just being far too creative and posting too often! I'm determined to catch up though. Hope you all have a great evening x
