Graduating...

Hi everyone! Just a fore warning this is a LONG POST ....I'm so glad that I got through last week ...I was completely stressed getting ready for both my kiddos graduations! I didn't get to make any crafts things for them, I had a tough enough time finding their outfits! For my son, I put together a slideshow for the graduating class..showcasing the kids (about 100 of them!) all the way from Kindergarten to Fifth grade! For my daughter's middle school graduation, she wanted to get her hair and make-up done...which is something she never wants done! As you can imagine, I was quite nervous doing it for her, and it didn't turn out exactly what she wanted... but she looked fabulous no matter what! :D  Luckily their ceremonies were on different days, and the family got to attend both special days!
Here's a couple of pictures of them...


So proud of them!!

Now on to my card ...it's Darby and Dazzle! They are an adorable pair, perfect for summertime birthdays! Which we are celebrating one tonight with my sister!

Followed the sketch from The Sweet Stop and colors from ATS challenge. The birthday banner stamp is from Imaginisce, and paper scraps from DCWV. The yellow background is embossed with a Cuttlebug's folder and lightly inked with lime green. No ribbons or flowers this time ...just simple and fun to make!

Thanks for stopping by! ;)
