I can not believe this time is coming – I have 3 graduates this year! My first baby, Alicia, is graduating high school (waaaa!), and my last 2 babies (I have 4 kids), Connor & Derek (yes, twins) are graduating middle school! I remember when the twins were babies (back in 2002), I did some math and figured out that in 2016 this would happen. It seemd soooo far away, like it would never happen. Yah right! Well here we are in the blink of an eye. Unbelievable!
So for family members, I am making homemade graduation announcements (but of course!). I’m using A Jillian Vance Design (AJVD) and Pretty Pink Posh (PPP) for this project. The graduatuion cap is from the AJVD Graduation Cap and Tassel die set. And the “Class of” words are from the AJVD Graduation Trio Word die set. I die cut the papers and the black foam using my Sizzix Big Shot.
I created a shaker card, and used PPP sequins:
- Cupped Mossy Green 6mm & 4mm
- Cupped Metallic Gold 6mm & 4mm
- Cupped Cranberry 6mm & 4mm
- Cupped Metallic Silver 6mm & 4mm
- Gold Stars and Silver Stars
I added Zig Clear Wink of Stella to the numbers.
Have a great day, and wonderful week, and Happy Crafting!
