Had to Stamp Tonight!!!

So, we went to see Kung Fu Panda tonight with Amanda. This was the first time she ever went to the movies, and she did great!! We are still surprised that she sat through the whole movie and enjoyed it. Anyway, it was a really cute movie, with lots of Kung Fu in it. We had so much fun, and Eric and I havent been to the movies in who knows how long. It was nice to have a "date." Even better to have a family date!!

When we got home, I really wanted to stamp, as I havent been able to do so the past few days. I am trying to brainstorm some ideas for graduation cards. I have seven seasonal employees who are graduating this year and I wanted to make something special for them to congratulate them on their achievements and wish them well in their futures. I'm definitely liking the word possibilities found in the Unity Stamp set Butterfly Beauty. I also have a bunch of the singles with the quotes, which I may use. "Go Confidently in the direction of your dreams....live the life you've imagined." or something to that effect.
Recipe for this card: Stamps: Unity- Butterfly Beauty
Paper: SU: Choc. Chip and Soft Sky....Anna Griffin DSP
Ink: Choc. Chip
Copics used to color in the Butterfly. White Gel pen for dots on scallop circle. Glitter on the Butterfly wings. Martha Stewart border punch: doile (this punch is so cool!!)
I smudged the "s" in possibilities when I went to emboss it, and I just couldn't toss the card. Eric yells at me for that, "why'd you throw it away, it was a perfectly good card." That's what I get from him, but I am a perfectionist and I was nervous to even post this card tonight. :)
Back to stampin for my grads!!
Thanks for stopping by and........Happy Stamping!!
