Stampin up graduation cards 2020

I've been keeping busy during this stay at home order making graduation cards! I used a mix of retired and current stampin up items! Loved these too cute ideas from songofmyheartstampers. However, that tassle was not easy to do! LOL and does take a lot of twine! The cute little bubbles are from the current set Butterfly abounds. Loved the whimsical grad hats idea from songofmyheartstampers, but I was lazy and used an already solid grad hat stamp so I didn't have to color! I used one of my…

All the shiny gold on this graduation card adds such a festive touch! I love how this idea, that uses products from Gina K., adds a personal touch with a banner of the graduates name. I spotted thi…

While simple to create, the look of this card is striking! I used some retired number dies for this card I was shown by my customer and friend, Victoria Schnepp, but the new Pattern Play Alphabet will be perfect when we can order it on June 3. Cherry Cobbler has been the perfect maroon for my daughter's maroon and grey school, and I had some baker's twine that I was able to color with a Smoky Slate Blends marker for the tassel. Since I used a full size gatefold as the base for the Maroon…

This is a total case of this card by Amy Koenders https://stampwithamyk.com/2020/05/05/stampin-up-witty-cisms-graduation-card/ and it's probably my favorite of the three grad cards I made this year. The colors are the same, but I substituted stamps to use ones I already had, which led to not stamping the word as many times on the main panel. The cap is a die cut rather than a stamped image.

Today I was still playing with the "Open Panel" Technique. It's so fun and it's a great way to use up the smaller pieces of decorative pa...

Another graduation card to share with you today. This card was done in Colgate University colors.

I was able to work in a graduation card for this week’s Sketch Challenge. It’s so great that you can make a card with the colors of a school and add the year to personalize it.

Here's how I made my graduation cap for the card I made yesterday. First start with a 1" strip of Basic Black card stock. Lay one point on the gutter of the paper trimmer, and the other end lined up with the 3/4" mark on the right side of the gutter. Then cut! Next flip the piece over, and line up the angle you just cut on the 1" line on the left of the gutter. And cut. That creates the mortarboard piece - a perfect parallelogram! Then punch a 1-3/8" square using your punch and another scrap…
