Oh I have so many cards to do this week and this is not really one I need to make desperately, but when my new Leere Aldrich stamp arrived from Crafts U Love I just had to have a go at making a card for Laura's graduation in June.I'm embarrassed to say that my daughter is a Paris Hilton Pink Person - yuk! She will love this image of a girl graduating with lots of bling, pink accessories and perfect pooch! Well at least I hope she will!
The card is also for the ABC challenge where we have reached the letter J and the team are focussing on 'Jagged Edges'. I hope my punched jagged edge counts - I must admit my first attempt at this card was more jagged as it had a few different punched layers, but sad to say it had a fatal accident in the trimmer and was sent to a better place.
Oh alright then it went in the bin, but don't tell anyone I'm wasting good card.
I would have entered this for another challenge, but discovered that they have restrictions and only accept cards done exclusively for them. How do you feel about that? I find it annoying and tend not to enter at all. I really can't see the point of not being able to combine challenges, but hey ho that's just me.

It's brilliant Ann and perfect for today's young woman. I agree with you about combining challenges - it would be nice to have the time to make an individual card for each one but there's so many that if they all took that attitude a lot would go under for lack of support. In any case a lot of my cards are inspired by more than one challenge.

I tend to agree for the most part about the challenges, especially if it is just for fun ... although I can kind've understand it if a prize is being offered. Is that me being a hypocrite?
Anyway, I know I've been irritated in the past 'cos I've made something that would fit several challenges but been unable to submit to more than 1 of them because of the 'exclusive' rule. That's why I like TPE :) they are much more relaxed and friendly about this issue.
Your graduation card is just blinging brilliant by the way LOL!
Luv'n'Stuff

What a cute graduation card! That stamp is too cute!
This is such a great card- fab image and colours. I agree about challenges that won't let you combine- it's fun to take a sketch from one and a theme from another. Mind you I was probably pushing it when I made a 6 in one this week!
