Graduation Day - It's OVER!!!











The Centerpieces featured pictures of the grads at various ages and they were reversible, featuring  Yaya and Tommy on opposite sides. The biggest challenge?  A breezy day and it catching the flags, knocking them over. Yes, they were weighted with rocks but the size of the flags and pix caught the wind and required more than I thought. Thankfully, the wind settled and they were fine.
Flags and pictures were attached to balloon sticks and placed in floral foam, rocks under and over and topped of with Easter grass ( 10 cents/ clearance... wish I could have found more.)

Supplies:
Solid Color papers - Coordinations
Print papers - Recollections (Michaels)
Bags - Michaels
Cans - Trader Joe's Coffee ;-)  covered with wrapping paper from Hobby Lobby
All die cuts are Cricut - Bible verses from "New Testament" cartridge
Other cartridges used were: Phrases, Lyrical Letters, Alphalicious, Plantin Schoolbook, George and Basic Shapes and Sports Mania
Shapes were embossed with Paper Studio star folder (on Cuttlebug machine
White/black "Congrats" and "2015) flags: lessthanperfectlifeofbliss.blogspot.com    (Thanks for the free download).
And then there's Ping Pong Man.   Used a paddle and cut a ball in half, added the mortar board and he's ready to play!

Hope you've enjoyed our graduation day celebration.  Keep "hopping" along - Wendy C is next. 
I have listed the whole blog in case you missed one (that would be sad!)...and comments bring happiness to this scrappy heart!
