Hey friends! Cathy here
today and we are wrapping up our graduation themed projects for the week
featuring the cute Grad
Cat Stamps. I love how several of the new products from the Summer
Release work so well for graduation cards!
I started this mini slimline card by cutting a panel for the
card front 3” x 6” from white cardstock and inking it with Uncharted Mariner
Distress ink. I lightly inked the top and applied more pressure with a blending
brush towards the bottom of the panel. Next, I die-cut the notebook paper die
from the Notebook
Photo Corners Dies twice from light blue cardstock and stamped
the graph paper/grid stamp from the A
Cut Above Stamps in dark teal ink on both die-cuts. I adhered
them at angles across the panel and trimmed the excess along the edges.
Next, I die-cut a banner from the Notebook Photo Corners Dies twice from dark yellow cardstock and white cardstock. I inked the white banners
with Uncharted Mariner Distress ink and heat embossed the sentiments with white
embossing powder. I then layered the banners slightly overlapping and adhered
them to the card front, trimming the excess from the edges.
I die-cut the star balloon from the Bright
Balloons Dies from white cardstock and inked it with Scattered
Straw and Fossilized Amber Distress inks. I tied some dark yellow embroidery
floss to the balloon and adhered it in the top right corner.
To finish, I stamped the cat, books and stars from the Grad
Cat Stamps on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock,
colored them with Copics and die-cut them using the coordinating
dies. I also stamped and colored a diploma from the Woo Hoo
Stamps and die-cut it using the coordinating
dies.
I hope you enjoyed and thanks for stopping by! For more
