ConGRADulations

I cut a yellow sheet of cardstock to 3.5 X 4.75 and die cut the the Congradulations Die.  I mounted that layer on a layer of black cardstock measuring 5.25 X 4.  Next, I die cut this again using some blue glittery cardstock, then I cut this out and glued it to the yellow letting a little of the yellow peek out.   Next, I cut out the hat and cut and glued all the layers together cutting various pieces.  This was mounted on that layer, which was mounted on the white cardstock.  Next, I pulled out the Cheers Die Set and die cut the champagne glass in vellum.  I used a bit of light blue distress on this with my Blending Buddy, just enough to tint it very lightly.  For the inside of the glass, I had a bit of white and added a bit of Mustard Distress Oxide.  Then on the vellum layer, which I glued on top of the white, I added some gold glitter.  After all this was tacked down, I added some Bubble Blow Out Embellishments with some glossy accents. 

Here is a close up of the glitter.  I think this will make a great graduation card for someone special, do you agree? 

I hope that you enjoyed this card and I think you for visiting. 

Hope you have a great day! ~Katie
