Yay! An Easy Graduation Card!
Hello! It’s Rachel, and today we are using Emily Moore Designs products to make an easy-to-reproduce graduation card.
For this project you will need:
Decorative Sentiment Dies
yay! Layered Word Die
all the happy things Stamp Set
Step One: Create the Card Panel
Die cut two of the largest decorative die from the Decorative Sentiment Dies from white card stock.
Trim off the bottom of each decorative die cut-creating a flat edge on both pieces.
Butt the flat edges of each piece together, and attach with washi tape on the back-creating one long panel.
Adhere the panel to glitter card stock.
Mat with another layer of coordinating glitter card stock.
Set aside.
Step Two: Yay Die Cuts
Die cut three of the smallest layer of the yYay! Layered Word Die from glitter card stock.
Die cut three of the middle layer of the yYay! Layered Word Die from a coordinating glitter card stock.
Adhere the layers together to create three Yay die cuts.
Adhere one of the layered Yay die cuts to the center of your card panel-covering up most of the seam from joining together the two decorative die cuts.
Then, adhere one layered Yay die cut above the center one, and one layered Yay die cut below the center one-leaving enough room to stamp in between the die cuts.
Step Three: Stamp and Assemble
Stamp sentiments from the all the happy things Stamp Set above and below the center Yay die cut.
Finally, adhere the finished panel to a card base.
The card will be long, but it will still fit in a business-sized envelope for mailing.
Note: There are so many great sentiments in the all the happy things Stamp Set! If you don’t need a graduation card, you could easily change out the sentiments and customize this design to exactly what you need (think birthdays, congratulations, and more!)
