The Graduates: Pop-up Grad Card

Hi, it's Courtney Lee here from Court's Crafts.

I just want to take a minute to say that we SOOOO appreciate it when you all leave comments for our projects! I stop back by here to see the comments that you have left for me and it is so incredibly encouraging! THANK YOU!

Okay, back to our scheduled programming. ;) The Graduates... This line is so much fun! As you will see from my DTmates' projects, this line was built so that you could add your school colors and it would still look fabulous! Since I didn't know who this card was intended for I kept it neutral.



Do you see that sparkle!?! Also, please notice how cleanly the sprinkles card stock cuts... gorgeous, right!?!


I replaced the deedledee that was made for this with this graduation cap doodle-pop. I have a confession: I am a doodle-pop hoarder. My personal resolution is that if I love a crafty supply, I will use it!!! I am using my doodle-pops and having so much fun doing so! They make any project pop! (pun intended)


Is that a pixie?!? Yes, yes it is. Texture - I love adding texture right now. I cut it down to size. And those gold sequins.. mmmmm... scrumptious. 


I needed a sentiment I felt so I grabbed this one off of the fancy frills! Don't forget to check those "border sticker" sheets for sentiments. They often have awesome ones! :) 


 Side view!

Make sure to check out what the rest of the DT has made for your inspirational pleasure! They are incredibly talented and... pay attention to how you can win this fabulous line! :) 

Thanks for stopping by and have a beautiful day!

  2. WOW wow WOW

    TOTALLY AWESOME pop-up card Courtney - LOVE IT!!!
    Such a COOL card to create and I LOVE it all the more because you have used both sides of my favourite paper from this collection "Reach For The Stars" and WOW, the Sprinkles cardstock makes it all POP!!!
    I confess that I have had one of these cards on the go for a few weeks now, the plan was to finish it for Mum for Mother's Day but I don't think that will be happening. I cut the base & panels out using dimensions I found online and all that is great but I'm completely blocked on how to decorate it inside => think I will have to make some flowers & butterflies and JUST DO IT.
    => THANK YOU for sharing your CREATIVE card & INSPIRATION and the push along to finish mine too :)
