Good morning! Welcome to Day 2 of the Pretty Pink Posh May Release Blog Hop. There are three $30 gift certificates up for grabs (one winner each day), and I'm so happy you are joining us!
Graduation season is upon us, and it also happens to be a super busy time for most families (including mine) as there are many end-of-school-year activities and productions happening. I wanted to come up with a card design that would be fun, but also quick and easily reproducible.
Graduation is certainly a cause to cue the confetti, so naturally I made a shaker card. This simple shaker design is accomplished with the frame from the Fancy Cake Dies. I layered the frame several times and then filled it with the new Blue Shimmer Confetti Mix. I LOVE the new shimmer confettis! They are so much fun!
The best thing is that this design is easily customizable to the school colors of your recipient. Blue and gold happen to be the school colors here, which is why I chose this particular combination.
After my shaker was filled, I die cut several graduation caps from the Graduation Mug Additions. I adhered them on top of my shaker in alternating directions to mimic caps being tossed in the air.
Finally, I die cut the Congrats Shadow dies with gold glitter cardstock and popped it up with dimensional foam onto my card.
Thanks so much for visiting today! This release has a fun variety of products, so make sure that you keep hopping and commenting along the way. (Comments for the giveaway must be left by 11:59 PM PST on 5/8/2023. Winners will be announced on the PPP blog.)
