Obligatory Graduation Card for Bitten By the Bug's Graduation Challenge

This year's graduates are in a very unique situation.  I have a few grads in my life so I created a stack of easy Cricut graduation cards. This first one was made for a very special recipient.  I can't wait to send it.  I am sure if you are a card maker you are trying to make this years' graduation feel a little extra special since they are missing their traditional ceremonies.  So share you fantastic makes with us at Bitten By the Bug 2's Graduation Challenge open until 5/25.

One trick to creating a "stack" of cards is to use all the bits and pieces.  I have used the negative cuts from the original card to make an entirely different card.  The original is on the right.  I used it for placement of the negative pieces prior to assembling it.  I placed the negatives on a fun tie dyed paper as well, it just happens to be monochromatic so it looks like a sky.  I liked it.

 

The negative of this card didn't hold up so well with the think letters.  I had to trash most of these pieces but kept the hat for another card later.  This one has already been mailed.  I also made a couple of others not pictured.

Ingredients:

Cricut Maker
