Art Education Graduation

 

WT999 - Fancy Fold

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.

Fun Fold

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.

For my card, I used this great Hunkydory image and cut the layers. I then stamped the sentiment and off set the black layer for the sentiment. The sentiment is then popped up on dimensionals.

I finished the card with a few hearts that I punch out of my scrap papers.

This will be another card for my pet donations.

3D Bowling

 

CAS792 - Paper Piece

For my card, I used a black card base and cut out a white card stock then used copic markers to create the bowling lane.

Next, I stamped the bowling pins 3 times and colored with copics. I then cut out the second and third layers so the bowling pins and ball are dimensional. I added dimensionals behind them and finished with the birthday sentiment.

APR24VSNG - If it ain't broke, don't fix it

I also made a Mother's Day card. For the outside, I used the Creek Bank Creations Happy Flappy Card Base die rather than an oval. It creates a flap that opens on the front of the card.

The sunflowers is a stencil from The Ton and once the flowers were stenciled, I added stickles to them.

On the inside of the flap, the sentiment says it is a Hug when you pull the tab. I really love this pull tab and plan to make a few more cards with it.

USEIT2024 - Tassel

I have to say I am very last minute making this card. My son's girlfriend graduates next week, and he asked for a cardinal pop-up card.

I used several Karen Burniston die cuts to create the pop-up cardinal and used a Spellbinders die cut to add the wings.

The graduation cap paper was a stencil used on red paper and I finished with the Spellbinders congratulations die cut out of gold mirror paper.

The card was finished with the closure and some red and white bakers' twine and I found the tassel in my tote of items to use up.

Here is a picture of the cardinal closed.

Birthday Pocket Card

 

WT998 - Pocket Cards

For my card, I created this pocket fold using some SU DSP. I added the insert and some twine so it could easily pull out of the pocket fold card.

The card was finished with the birthday sentiment popped up on dimensionals

It was tough to get a good picture of this card as I had to lay it down in my photo box.
