Beautiful Balloons - Graduation Card

 I needed a graduation card and found Tammy Beard's instructions for her graduation card and it was just perfect, so I followed her instructions on how to fold and make this card.

 

  


Stamp Set:  Beautiful Balloons

Cardstock:  Azure Afternoon, Basic White, Lemon Lolly, Bright and Beautiful DSP

Ink:  Azure Afternoon, Lemon Lime Twist, Blueberry Bushel, Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly

Other:  Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Paper Trimmer, Simply Scored Scoring Tool, Simply Scored Diagonal Scoring Plate (retired), Bone Folder, ruler, pencil, Beautiful Balloons Dies, 2023-2025 In-Color Dots (Boho Blue)

 

1.     The base of the card is Azure Afternoon cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 9-7/8” and scored at 5-1/2”.

2.    Use a pencil to mark 2-1/8” from the score line on both sides, top and bottom.

3.    Then use a ruler to draw the lines for the fold lines.  Use a ruler to connect or the retired Simply Scored Diagonal Scoring Plate:

4.  On the short side, mark 2-1/8” (center point) at the top (short end above straight score line).  Cut between the closest score line and mark to remove both corners.

5.    Fold diagonal lines forward; fold the 5-1/2” scored line backward.

6.    Inside Panels:  Cut Basic White 4” x 5-1/4” and 2-3/4” x 2-3/4”.  Lay the large panel inside the bottom part of the card.  Add DSP cut at 1” x 4” and ½” x 4”.

7.    Use the small balloon to add the balloons in different colors.  Use Azure Afternoon to color in the sentiment “Let’s Get Our Celebration On” and “You did it”

8.    Die-cut a streamer using the Beautiful Balloons Dies from Lemon Lolly and adhere with a Glue Dot and a Boho Blue Dot.
