Bokeh Tech Interactive Camera Grad Layout

Created this layout with a Camera/Grad theme. Was inspired by Sandy Allnock to make it interactive. You can click here to see Sandy's card & video on how to make. Interactive is when the tab is pulled to reveal the sentiment "Smile." Used Hero Arts stamp/die Camera. Used Cricut cartridge George & Basic Shapes (circle & rectangle) & Gypsy device to make the sentiment tag. Used photo of my daughter at her college graduation. You can see how I transformed the grad photo below from the original grad photo. Used Bokeh Technique by stamping gold ink repeatedly before reinking, punching out the circles & placing on the photo. Added Tim Holtz filmstrip ribbon to the tab.

Before tab pulled.
