Graduation card from a card kit which features layered die cut, embellished scrapbook paper and a laser printed greeting
With a few requests for graduation cards I made another. This is a card kit from the May card class. This scrapbook paper has been in my stash a long time and I decided it needed some embellishing before I would every be able to use it so I stamped with a variety of stamps using a variety of green ink pads. It was orginally the dark plaid which you can see on the flaps. The back had been white and it got the stamping treatment as well. I was much happier with it after the embellishing!!! I cut the four little rectangles, scored their corners and fold over the flaps before adhering them to my green card front. I layered the star and the circle to create my central focal element. I adhere it in place using 3D foam tape. I cut through my stash of greetings and found this one which I laser printed from a digital stamp I downloaded from Desert Diva. I trimmed it down a bit, flagged one end and sponged it with green ink. Thinking it still needed "a bit of something" I auditioned several options before deciding on this white star eyelet. I punched a hole and set the eyelet on the left hand side of my greeting and the hole seemed large and empty so I added a glue dot on the back and a clear rhinestone to the front. That was much better!!!!!! I adhered it to the front of my card using 3D foam tape. To finish it off I added clear glitter to the star and the cap on my greeting!! Love it!! Therese
