You are ReMARKable!!!

I made these cards for three young women that are graduating from High School this year.  I was lucky enough to teach this group of girls when they were 12/13 years old and have had the opportunity to watch these ladies grow into remarkable young women.



This card is 4 1/2 x 6 inches, the background was cut at 4 1/4 x 5 3/4 inches and was embossed with the Cuttlebug folder You.  I then wrapped it background with twine (the blue and yellow is We R Memory Keepers Twine, and the Purple is The Twinery).  



The cute marker is from the Lettering Delights Pop School Cut It's Set, and I cut it out with my Silhouette at approximately 6 inches.  I put it on the card using pop dots.  The bow is from the Cricut Cartridge Create a Critter and is found on layer 3 of the Porcupine.  I used Crystal Stickles and my I-Rock tool to bling up the bow.  

The adorable face is from the Basic Paper Doll Face 1" stamps from Peachy Keen.  I traced over the eyes and added a white highlight with Sakura pens and finally, I added some Glossy Accents to the eyes, and some chalk to the cheeks to give them some dimension.

The inside has the definition/synonyms of remarkable.
re·mark·a·ble:
notably or conspicuously unusual; extraordinary
worthy of notice or attention.
synonyms:
notable, noteworthy, striking, extraordinary,
wonderful, unusual, singular, uncommon.
