First Challenge

I've been following the challenges on http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/ and this week decided to join in the fun!

This year we only have one family member graduating from high school. This is unusual for us with 59 first cousins between my husband and I. We usually have at least 2 or 3 graduates a year, but I guess everyone is starting to get older and we are starting to see more college graduations.

Here is the card I created for this year's graduate. The only cartridge I used was Plantin Schoolbook for the starburst, number and letters. I was expecting to use a cute cartoon image, but I think I'm going to experiment with another one. The #1 is popped up to add dimension and I used a silver pen to add embellishment, other than that I think it is a pretty simple card.
