Heart 2 Heart Challenge - Mojo Monday Sketch 139

This week's Heart 2 Heart challenge is a color challenge! We were challenged to use the colors listed above - Ocean, Topiary, and Desert Sand. I chose to make a graduation card ('tis the season!). I combined this challenge with the Mojo Monday Sketch 139.

Products used:

• Splendor Level 2 Paper Packet (Topiary paper)
• Zippidee Level 2 Paper Packet (Desert Sand paper)
• You Did It! - C1351
• Irresistibles - Pizzazz
• Black Waxy Flax
• Black brads from Basic Assortment
• Cardstock: Black, Desert Sand, White, Ocean

To make the mortarboard, I stamped it on textured White Daisy cardstock and cut it out, cutting carefully around the tassel. I used 3-D Foam tape to pop the hat part up a little (after putting a regular black brad in the middle as the "button"). I attached the mortarboard to the card, then put a black Bitty Brad into the circle above the tassle. I wrapped a few short pieces of black Waxy Flax around the Bitty Brad to give the tassel some dimension. Easy! :)
