A new challenge starts today at the DIES R US Challenge Blog. This time it is about graduation.
This is an unusual year for graduating classes since most ceremonies have been canceled. It has been a year, however, when people have used their creativity to find different ways to celebrate these special achievements. For this challenge, I decided to make a card with the school colors of one of the local high schools. I will give it to a teacher friend of mine so she can send it too her classroom student aid. I make side step cards frequently so I keep several pre-made bases on hand. It is easy then to cover the bases with some pretty papers and a few die cuts. This card came together in less than 15 minutes.
Here are the dies I used for the card.

Hello Kathy, what a great card that celebrates all of the graduates. It is an unusual time and you are so thoughtful to remember the student ade that I am sure worked hard with the teacher to accomplish the on line school that all of your students are doing this year. I love that it is a stand up card to be left out and admired.
