Doctor Graduation!

Doctor Graduation

Made this card for my daughter's godmother who is also my childhood best friend. I suppose to make this card earlier when I got my stamp but it seems that the previous two (2) weekend had me busy for something else. My best friend is graduating as Advanced Practice Nurse (APN) last week but I really do not have time to make the graduation card. With guilt on my mind, I finally made this graduation card! Hopefully she will like it and cheer her up.

MFT Wednesday Stamp Club Challenge #80

This card layout is inspirational from MFT Wednesday Stamp Club Challenge #80 sketch/challenge as shown above.

Close-up : Doctor and graduation hat

The doctor image is stamped on the white card stock and colored using Copic. The stethoscope is colored with glitter pen to give some bling to it. The four corners are rounded and the edges are distressed.

Close-up : Bling  stethoscope

Close-up : Punched strip

The card base is blue which I topped a yellow card stock onto it. At the bottom of the yellow card stock, a strip of red embossed card stock is attached onto it. Then, it is follow by the blue punched strip on top of the red embossed card stock. A pattern paper is attached on the yellow card stock as in layout. The doctor image is attached onto the pattern paper.

Close-up : Sentiment

The sentiment is stamped on a light blue card stock and rounded the corner on the upper left and bottom right. It is then attached onto the pattern paper as in layout. The graduation hat (or mortarboard) is attached onto the head of the doctor. Some dimensional foam is used for the graduation hat tassel to give some feeling that it is loose.

Close-up : The embellishments

Two (2) pink punched hearts are attached on the left of the doctor as shown in the layout. Then, some pearl hearts are attached onto the punched hearts and the medical record on that the doctor is holding.
