Hello paper crafter's, Hope all is well with you. It's that time of year for graduations.
My niece Livi is graduating high school and wanted to share the card I made her.
This is my second time making a slimline card. The first one was a few years ago, Before they were so popular.
Her school colors are red and black but wanted it to be more girly so I added other colors.
I used my Cricut for the word Grad and for the graduating cap. I clear embossed the word Congratulations. It's a set from Stampendous called Tweet Chirps.
I enjoyed making a slimline card. I have been seeing a mini slimline card and want to try that.
I also have a recipe to share with you all. I don't do a lot of baking when the weather starts warming up but I had some raisins that I needed to use up and I thought the grandkids would enjoy a treat.
So I made a batch of Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits. They are sooo easy to make. The grandkids really enjoyed them.
