I know it is early but I had a request to make several graduation cards so thought I should get started. The thing about designing cards is they can be customized to the person or situation. The school colors are black and gold.
I embossed a gold foil sheet from a Kaiser Kraft paper pad with a Sizzix EF. The graduation cap and the sentiment are old Stampabilities stamps. I secured strips of gold and black ribbons with glue dots and then popped up the cap with foam tape.

Super card. That was a nice touch to use the black and gold ribbons. I always try to match my graduation cards to the school colors, too, if I know them.
ReplyDeleteI love how the gold foil adds such an elegant touch to this pretty card! Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!
