I am heading to a Grad Party today and thought hmmm...maybe I'll make a card then thought maybe I will make a 3D creation for the graduate.
So here is what I came up with ~ it’s a gift box at the bottom and added the 3D Graduation Cap which I plan to fill with goodies and I added a 3D M for not only the grad’s initial but also the school mascot (Mustangs). I used the school colors throughout the project.
So here is how it all came together:
~ STEP 1 ~
Started with the Glove Box from the Mothers Garden SVG Kit from SVG Cuts. I cut it at 100%.
I added a ribbon in the dark purple. Papers are from Basic Grey Shine On. I picked it up at Joanns - was so excited to see Joanns carrying Basic Grey 12x12 paper pads!
~ STEP 2 ~
Cut and assemble the Grad Cap from SVG Cuts’ Graduation Day SVG Kit. I also cut at 100%.
It cut perfect on my Sizzix Eclips & I watched the assembly video which also gave tips on creating the tassle from embroidery floss. It was so incredibly easy to put together. I am going to put some candies in the cap.
~ STEP 3 ~
And last but not least thought it needed a little something to balance out the design so I cut a 3D “M” from SVG Cuts’ 3D Letters Kit. This is about 3" high.
I adhered the cap box and 3D M to the glove box with hot glue.
If you are going to a grad party try one of these for the graduate!
Have you spotted the latest kit from SVG Cuts?
Oh it is just perfect for all your summer crafting projects.
Everything looks great together! What a great gift!
