Spellbinders Graduation Cards!

Hi everyone! This year is flying by and here it is time for grad cards!   I love the sets Spellbinders is offering this year. I used the new Classic Mouse Graduation die set and the new Classic Mouse Graduation Sentiments BetterPress glimmer set.

We need a girl grad card so I used the school colors for here.  Spellbinders has an assembly page on their website to follow…makes it so easy to put together!

I had the idea to add a flower to her extended hand…so cute! The white daisy is from the Mini Blooms and Sprigs die set.

I wish I could show you in person because they’re so much cuter in real life!

Close up photos…

I used a circle punch to make a stencil to ink on the blush on her cheek.  She just needed a little color! lol

Now, here’s Mickey!

I love that they have different shoes…I added more detail to the tassel this time.  I couldn’t think of anything else to put in his hand. lol

I just cut strips of cardstock to frame the ‘class of’ words.

Here he is close up.  I didn’t add the blush/cheek circle.

I love the little hat charm in the sentiment set.  I clipped off the circle top though.  I want to make some more cards with these sets.  I love the letterpress look.  You can foil with these too so I want to do that on some.

Both cards are A7 size but will still mail for one forever stamp.

Linking to some card challenges…

A Cut Above April – anything goes with a die cut

NBUS #85 – never before used stuff

Word Art Wednesday #748-749 – anything goes

Two Grad Cards with Spellbinders Small Die of the Month Club…

Hi cardmakers and friends!  Some fun cards that came together fast.  I was so glad the club kit has birthday and graduation sentiment banners!

A2 size cardbase with a panel on top… die cut all the parts…you even get the cloud dies in the set!  It’s such a good deal for $15!  You can purchase later but the price is $27!

Sign up for the club is happening HERE for a few more days!

One of our grandsons when he was a toddler loved lining up his airplanes like a lot of boys line up cars!  So cute! Now he loves fishing, playing the piano and drums….and swimming and and and! lol  Airplanes always make me remember this about him.

The dies in this kit make lines to follow where the pieces go!  THAT is so great!  Helpful!  Speeds it up!

The words in the banners are such a neat look!

I used my favorite double sided mounting tape to adhere the die cuts to the card.  The clouds are glued flat.

I had a lot of pictures for this first card… second card I only have two. So keep scrolling! lol

Basically the same thing only Slimline size…matte gold and matte silver scrap pieces for the airplane.

I love the clean and simple approach with the dark medium blue sky! So fun!

My daughters needed 7 grad cards so these 2 will go with 5 others I made for them. So fun!  I love it when I get to use my supplies!

Thank you so much for stopping by and before you go I better tell you about the SALE Spellbinders has going on! Some wonderful products to choose from!   So glad we can order online since Hobby Lobby quit carrying them.

Have a good rest of the week!
