I am back today at SweetSassyDiva's with another Graduation card!
We have had a lot of Graduation Parties to attend and I really like to make home-made cards for the kids we know.
This one is super simple and can easily be customized to school colors.
I got out my Gypsy and got to designing!!
I used the shadow numbers from Varsity Letter sized to 2.06 inches.
I welded 2012 together. I copied and flipped a set of 2012 and used Hide Contour to hide the inside cut of the "0".
I was able to fit cards on my mat.
I cut these out in white cardstock.
Since our HS colors are blue and white, I did not cut out another shadow layer of the numbers.
For another school, I cut out green shadow layer to cover the white and used a black skinny number (below) inside the green.
I put the numbers on my mat sized to 2.06 and used Hide Contour to hide the outside cuts.
I cut these numbers out in blue and adhered them to the card.
I added a graduation cap from Jolees.
I will make more of these next year (with a 3 instead of a 2) for my son and keep one for his scrapbook!!
Thanks again for having me over Bobbi Jo!!
Fantastic idea, Lori! And you could do it for any year! I will have to keep that one in the idea file.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great card. You know I just love shape cards of any type and this one will have a lot of meaning for the receiver. TFS
