Grad Card for a Child

Created this Graduation Card for a young child.

Used From My Kitchen Cricut cartridge for the Gingerbread Cookie. Used Locker Talk Cricut cartridge for the Graduation Hat.

Used a new technique that I saw someone on Internet do which is to split the twine that comes with two different colors twisted together to get 1 color. I split the yellow from the white to use the yellow as the tassel on the Graduation Hat.

For embellishment I use wiggly eyes, red Stickles, buttons, gems & star punch.

Used a Spellbinders die for the banner to stamp whimsy sentiment on.
