Graduation season is almost upon us. Our son Nicolas will be graduating from university in June. He has accomplished so much in his 5-year engineering degree (8 terms of school and 6 co-op placements), all during a global pandemic and the complexities of going to school in another country during that time. We are so proud of him!
This graduation card will be easy to customize for the colors of any school. The Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper has a nice variety of colors to create the backdrop squares. I did my graduation cap in Misty Moonlight Card stock and the tassel and button were colored using Stampin’ Blends. I used the Happy Little Things Stamp Set to create the two-color “Celebrate” greeting on the card. The layout is from our CASE-ing Tuesday Challenge (see below).

CASE-ing Tuesday
My card was CASE’d from page 25 of the 2024 Jan-Apr Mini Catalog. Each week we makeover a card from the current Stampin’ Up catalog and then share it on our Facebook Group. You can join our CASE-ing Tuesday Facebook Group to see more samples and/or share your own card with us. It’s a great way to improve your stamping and challenge yourself to try new styles. I hope you will join us.
