A whole bunch of my very favorite crafters in the blogosphere have come together for an awesome challenge blog. This week's theme is 'Congrat's Grad' and is open for interpretation. I have two family members graduating this year, so it was great motivation for me to make some grad cards!
I want the basic concept of the card to be masculine, but I added a little glitter and glam to the second for a touch of femininity.
To get those glittered numbers, I simply mixed in (a ton!) of glitter with my simply pressed clay before putting it in the molds. The grey color came from the glitter-no added color needed!
3 posts in the last 4 days... I'm feeling productive! Come back soon because I have more planned for later this week.
Looks cute! Like the blog too - new follower :)

DeleteWhhhaat?! Glitter letters! So impressed! Thanks for sharing with us @ TGIFC!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment! I thought about the different ways I could make the letters sparkle and this seemed the most unique so I figured I would try it!

DeleteFYI: Real men like glitter, too! Lol! Great cards!
ReplyDeleteI tried to convince my husband to craft with me today. He said 'no thanks- I'd prefer not to get glitter herpes.' :) But I agree - real men like glitter.
