Creative Ideas for Grad Invites and decorations!

We hoped you loved all the page ideas this last Monday 
to catch up on all your Grad photos, they had some
super cute ideas and today we have more from our talented 
team to share from cards, to announcements, and 
even some fun decorations for their Grad parties.

Graduation Medallion by Sandy Ang

Graduation Invitation by Debbie Sherman


supplies: papers GP393, 390, and black glitter
cardstock, stickers ESG002 for the grad hat.
For the border she used a border punch and
tied it all together with a really pretty piece of ribbon.

Graduation Banner by Emily Branch
Emily created this banner in a different way to decorate
for a fun grad party.  She used the same diecut shape and
added fun details with doilies, stickers, rhinestones and
ribbons on each of them. Then she punched holes in each of
them and ran a gorgeous piece of white ribbon to hang it up.
She even added a little bit of paint brushed on the edges
to make it pop out and give it an antique look.



supplies:  Grad papers GP385, 394, 396 , champagne
glitter cardstock, Chipboard and stickers ESG002
and a super cute piece of ribbon...

Graduation Card by Sandy Ang

supplies: GP 394, 391,389,396,387,392, 386 ,

create your own like Karen did.  She created this cute
cover with a grad hat and added a matching announcement
with all the information on the inside.
