I wanted to make a quick and simple Graduation Card that would be easy to reproduce. This card can easily be used to give to someone graduating or used as in invitation to a graduation Party. I used the word Celebrate to recognize the hard work and accomplishment of graduation - whether it is from High School, College or where-ever.
This card can easily be adapted to any color scheme - and I love that envelope can be easily coordinated and fits the card perfectly!
I used the Wild Card Cartridge to make the elements of this card. This cart makes it so quick and easy to make a shaped card! I decided not to use the phrases that are suggested for this card and but picked the phrase Celebrate (since I will be using this card as a party invite). I started by cutting the envelope using the Fit to Page button and took note of the size it used. Then I cut my card and embellishments at the same size (including the envelope liner).
Next I took my Black 100 Copic marker and lined all the cut edges of the card to make it pop a little more (love the nice fine tip on these markers). The card is really a bit plain so before attaching the phrase I wanted to add a little bit of bling.
I LOVE the dimension of this glitter technique and how NOT MESSY (for glitter at least) this is. It is so sparkly and does not rub off. For more info on this technique please visit my blog at

I would love to know what you think about my project today.
