New challenge this week!

This week is my and Dacia's turn to host the swap at latenight stampers . It will be challenge 23. The swap involves using any retiring set and my personal challenge is to use the set 3 different ways. So the first one up is a card for graduation and the set is Great grads. This card is made with a 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 strip of Black Card stock. Score card stock at 2 1/8 on either end and fold in and cut to create the effect of a graduation gown. I just purchased this set and have barley used it and now it is retiring ! Glad I bought it when I did. If you want to see the retiring sets there are lists on my side bar, just a few short weeks left to purchase. You can purchase here at my Stampin'Up Web site here is the great grad set


Tomorrow I will show you a scrapbook page and a non graduation card both made with this same set!
Thanks for looking Virginia

This is a wonderful Graduation card. It looks like you could easily change the colors for people graduating from different schools.
