Challenge #327-Graduation
Make a project about Graduation.

This Weeks Prize-


  Two My Sentiments Exactly sets-Brand New!


Create a project inspired by Graduation

To qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you used. If you use a Cricut Explore machine, at least one cut must be from the Cricut catalog of images.

If it isn't a card, you will get two entries into the drawing!

Here is my project- 



Here is the materials I used for this card-
  1. Cricut cuts: teddy bear graduate (Teddy Bear Parade) front sentiment (a chunky font in Access), insert (CTMH Artfully Sent).
  2. Cardstock: vanilla, black (Michaels), patterned cs (Best Creations), blue, brown, tan, white, gold (scrap stash).
This was so fast and easy! I think I spent an hour making this. The insert looks great, with plenty of room for writing a note to the graduate.

Have a wonderful day!

Here is my project-


I made this paper sculpture for my Mother-in-law for Mother's Day. I used the Dreaming Tree Hummingbird Paper Sculpture to make this, and it was so easy! I love the tutorials the owner, Leo Kowal, does-it makes it so easy to put together! The pearls ere from my stash, and the background paper is some old CTMH cardstock I inherited. The tag is from Cricut Access from Draw + Cut Everyday tags, and I used scraps of white and blue to make it. The frame is one I bought a long time ago, so I don't know where I bought it!
