Creatively made into a Graduation card!

Hi All! Today I have a fun hot foil card featuring a VW Beetle that I made into a graduation card! Recently my neighbor asked me to make two graduation cards for her kids. Both are graduating with Masters, her daughter in Education and son in Architecture. I will show you the sons card in a few days. As usual I try and personalize cards. I know Jocelyn drives a cute beetle with those fun eyelashes on it. She also loves pink. So that’s what I was working with. Now, on with the Show & Tell…

This set was the Glimmer of the Month for 1/2023. It is available for purchase and is a really fun set. Look into the Spellbinders Clubs, they are fantastic!

Adding the congratulations sentiment and a cap transformed this into a graduation card! If you look close I even added little eyelashes.

The pastel pink hot foil worked beautifully on the Shimmer paper.

Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Club from May 2022

Do you love hot foil? If so you need to join this club!

Hey guys! I wanted to show you my new kit from Spellbinders Hot Foil Club. Oddly enough I used the kit w/o doing any foiling! LOL. May’s kit has this really cool butterfly die, that does have areas to hot foil, BUT it also had areas to add some needlework! Dang two things I love in one. Sadly though I had to create this card for some friends who recently lost their Father.

I cut out the layers of the butterfly and stitched the wings with some DMC thread in Monet.

I paired my butterfly with a fun retired embossing folder using some white shimmer paper. I also included the die cut sympathy, which I cut twice adhering them together then adding crystal lacquer to the top for shine and dimension.

This is what came in my kit. The words are all foilable, as well as portions of the butterfly. They are really great kits with an awesome price point. It also came with some gold foil!

I picked my paper colors to go with the thread.

Card Details:

  • Card base or Accent Opaque White 12olb
  • Bermuda Bay layer cut with Whimsy die set, adhered with tape runner
  • White shimmer layer cut with same die set, then dry embossed with a retired folder, adhered with fun foam and 1/4 inch double side adhesive
  • Mint macaron layer cut with same die set, adhered with tape runner
  • Sympathy cut twice, adhered together, 3D crystal lacquer added for shine and dimension, adhered with zig chisel glue
  • With word stamped on base paper with versafine and heat embossed with clear powder, adhered with foam squares
  • Butterfly pieces adhered together with Beacon glue, adhered with foam squares
  • Honeybee aurora borealis gems added randomly
  • Honeybee black gem added to butterfly head
