Twisted Easel Graduation Card


I chose to do a twisted easel card for my nephew Ryan's graduation card. I can't believe he is graduated and 18! I can remember going to the hospital the night he was born. Any way...I used my Cri-kits pens to do the Congratulations sentiment using Songbird (welded with my Gypsy) on the front and then I carefully cut it out. I tried to cut it on my Cricut but botched the first one so I obviously need to practice that technique. I used Everyday Paper Dolls for the cap and diploma. I found a great video on making this card on Mary's Cardz TV. I love watching her videos...she sounds like such a sweet lady and her instructions are always so easy to follow!!

This turned out really great. I have got to try making one of these cards, they seem to be the rage right now.
