I'm back with a grad card!

Hello, crafty friends!!  I feel like it's been sooooo long since I've posted or visited anyone, but I'm home and hopefully will get back in the groove! 

We had a wonderful vacation!!!  Medieval Times, the Smithsonian, Colonial Williamsburg, and Busch Gardens!!   We had a great time together walking, walking, and more walking, plus lots of fun and some much needed rest!   [We did come home to a mess as 2 of our cats got themselves shut into my DD's bedroom!  NOT pleasant!!!]

We've been very busy since getting home, but I finally got into my craft room this afternoon for a little while.  :) 

Challenges...
Tuesday Morning Sketches #150 - sketch + twist -- black, kraft, + one color
Stampin' Sisters in Christ #143 - show action, just image, or action card (I used an Action Wobble)
Doodle Pantry DPDC24 - use DP image (not just sentiment)





The cap is on the Action Wobble

~Doodle Pantry "Grad Hats" image and sentiment

I'm getting addicted to wobblers - they are so much fun on a card!
I cannot even IMAGINE how much of a mess 2 cats in a room would make...oh my. Just, oh. my. Heck, even roaming free our 3 manage to create utter chaos (but only at 3 am, of course) knocking things over. Forget the 'nature calling' aspect...ew. Your dd must be pretty upset :(
I love your take on the TMS sketch! I can't settle on a single colour yet :)

This is SO cute, Debbie. I have NEVER braved making a grad card. I always "wimp out" and go to the dollar store for them. I've just never tried. Yours is darling, and will be treasured I'm sure. Thanks for sharing this. I must say, we really miss you at Word Art Wednesday, and would SO LOVE to have you play along when you can. Thanks for stopping by my blog to say hi, and don't be a stranger. I miss seeing your pretty work!
Have a blessed week,
