Grad Bash Blog Hop

Welcome to the Graduation Day Blog Hop! This hop is going to provide you with lots of graduation ideas for all those graduates in your life.

If you have come from www.bellascrapbookdesigns.blogspot.com blog, you are in the right place. If you stumbled upon my blog and want to play along, you can do so by starting at Nadia’s Blog (www.nadiasbeautifulmess.blogspot.com).

My project today is a graduation card:


The pattern paper is from a DCWV paper stack. I started out with just black and white, but I couldn't leave it that way. I needed some color!


The graduation hat is from "A Child's Year" and I made the tassel myself. And now for the blog candy! I am giving away this Pink Scotch ATG! I have one myself and I love it! (Plus it's pink!)


To enter please follow my blog and leave a comment on this post. For an additional chance to win follow me on Facebook and let me know. The link is on the right hand column of my blog. For a 3rd chance to win, tell other people about this giveaway. Just link back to this post and leave a comment to let me know. The winner will be announced on May 9th.


Thank you for playing along. Your next stop is http://talesoftayandbay.blogspot.com/.
