My son's girlfriend graduates on Saturday and this is the card I made for her.
I used the Divinity Design step die cut to create the step card and then added some great paper to the inside. I die cut the circles and the 2024 adding those to the steps.
The cap and class of are also die cuts from Divinity and the scroll is from Penny Black.
The sentiment is from Unity and I finished the scroll off with a bit of ribbon from my stash that my son's girlfriend helped me clean up from bags of ribbon that was given to me by friends and family.
Here is the front of the card:
She is graduating with an Art Education degree. So, for the front of the card, I die cut the Spellbinders art pallet and used several colors of Distress Oxide to add color to the pallet.
Next, I die cut the paint brushes and watered down some acrylic paint in red, yellow and blue for the tips of the brushes. I then added full acrylic paint to the die cut paint drops and popped those up on dimensionals.
I then die cut the hat and scroll out of paper scraps and the paint tube and popped the tube up on dimensionals.
For the sentiment, I downloaded a certificate font and typed that in word. I then die cut the panel and popped it up on dimensionals.
The front of the card was finished with a few clear sequins.
