Hello Crafty Friends! It’s graduation time and today, I am sharing a card created with the cute Grad Cat Stamps and the new Notebook Tabs Dies.
To start, I die cut white cardstock with the largest die in Stitched Rectangle Dies. I ink blended the panel with Squeezed Lemonade and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxides. I splattered some orange watercolor onto the bottom of the panel and blue watercolor onto the top of the panel. I sprayed some Gold Shimmer onto the panel for added interest. I set the front panel aside to dry.
To make the notebook paper, I die cut some lined cardstock with Notebook Tabs Dies. I adhered black cardstock under neath the lined cardstock and glued the notebook paper onto the front panel at a slight angle.

I stamped the images from Grad Cat Stamps and die cut with the coordinating Grad Cat Dies. I added a mortar board and diploma from Woo Hoo Stamps, confetti from Bold Balloons, and stars from School Time Stamps. I colored the images with Copic Markers listed below.
I finished off the card with a Congrats sentiment from Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies and a White Heat Embossed sentiment from Grad Cat Stamps.
Thanks so much for joining me today! Have a wonderful week!
