Hi Guys,

Well I was on a roll with these new sets!  They are the most fun!  So lets start with my Graduation Card. With Graduations coming upon us, we needed a new set for that monumental occasion!!!  

So next up is Con{GRAD}ulations stamp set! I named it that, don't you love it??? {if I do say so myself!}

It is a 4 x 8 stamp set and we still had more we could have added!

Thank You Charming Tag

Thank You Charming Tag

This Ranger tag was fun to do.  I used Fired Brick and Faded Denim on both the tag and the flag layers.  I just made them more subtle on the tag and more vibrant on the flags.

The Charm is from our NEW {die}lightfully Charming Circle Die and the Thank you is from our New Charming Occasions Stamp Set.

The layers are cut from our new die you will see on Wednesday!

I used the new Endless Borders Stamp set you will see in the full reveal on Friday!

And of course an AJVD Pear Pin in black!

Stop back tomororrow for more SNEAK PEEKS!!!  And make sure you come back everyday this week to see some fun NEW A Jillian Vance Design Stamps and dies.  You can also have a chance to WIN a stamp set of your choice.  All you need to do is be a follower of http://ajillianvancedesign.blogspot.com/ and leave a comment daily on THAT blog :)
