Graduation Time

Yes, it's that time of year again. I was madly rolling out Graduation cards yesterday.  
As you can see, I am still in love with the Triple Play technique from  TJN . I just love this technique when I need to make a bunch of cards. I thought it worked great for these cards.
The number of graduation stamps in my stash is pretty limited, so I had to turn to my Cricut for help. I didn't have much to chose from on the cartridges I have, so I went searching and found some really, really, REALLY great stuff at SVGCuts.com. Not just Graduation, but all kinds of great things I can cut with my Cricut/Sure Cuts A Lot program. 
I used the SVGcuts to make all of the phrases and the graduation cap. I sorta felt like I was cheating on my first love "stamping", so I did pull out some swirl stamps from Autumn Leaves to jazz them up a bit. Each of them is different, added some ribbon, brads, dry embossing etc. to give them their own personality. 
Now to get them in envelopes and on their way to the recipients!
