A Card and a LO

I was asked to make a graduation card for a lady at my church and really enjoyed coming up with this one. I am really trying to use my Cricut more and use die cuts...I have been primarily stamping for the past year or so and yet have a huge amount of Cricut stuff too! So, I incorporated a die cut sentiment and the little diploma. I love these flowers from Cornish Heritage Farms, they are called Artys Blooms from the Shady Tree Studio line. I stamped a background using Spanish Script and the lovely flourishes are from the Rummage Bin line, Beautiful. The image was colored with Prismas.
So, in the effort of using my cricut more I also want to do more LO's. I really do enjoy preserving the pics of my family. All embellishment is from the Cricut on this one, and I just adore those birds! Aren't they the cutest? I did add a bit of stamping because that's my real goal, use die cuts and stamping together. I hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for visiting!
