As much as I love it, I had no idea what to do with this combination for the Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge. I looked at my list of cards to make and saw that I needed a graduation one for my grand niece. Her school colors are royal blue and red but I decided to go for it anyway!
I created a simple mortar board with squares, popped it up and put a candy dot and a tassel from Celebrate Today (kicking myself - looks like it shifted). I cut the happy using brushed silver cardstock and thinlit word from Hello You. I popped up the letters that hang over (as you can see a tiny bit on the Y). I decided to emboss the Pacific Blue panel with the Lucky Stars embossing folder and mount on thick Whisper White cardstock. The sentiment was heat embossed with silver and then cut with the Banner Triple punch. I seem to use that for everything! The little star came from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack. I am obsessed with putting every last piece of paper to use so I punch out stars or flowers before tossing scraps. Am I the only one who does this?
