Hats Off to the Grads + Giveaway {Avery Elle}

Hello friends!

TGIF! I am on the Avery Elle blog today with a graduation card that I made using the Hats Off stamp set and dies. All my Avery Elle supplies are linked below. 

I try not to play favorites with my Avery Elle stamps (I love them all!), but I have to say that the Hats Off set is one of my favorites from the CHA release- it's such a unique set that lends itself to so many occasions.  My card is all about the grads and I paired the Hats Off stamp and die set with the Number Balloons Ellements die for a fun and festive look.

I stamped the hands and hats onto white card stock, colored this with Copic markers and die cut the shapes,  Next I die cut the number balloons from shiny gold card stock and secured a bit of gold thread to each number to act as the balloon string.  I adhered the numbers to a panel of white card stock and added the hats and hands- using foam tape to adhere both the hands and secure the gold thread to the card.  I mounted the finished panel onto a note card from the Midnight Collection note card set.

Numbered Balloons {Avery Elle}

Hello again, 

I am on the Avery Elle blog today with a little card I made using the Numbered Balloons stamp set and coordinating Elle-ments dies.  Numbered Balloons works awesome as a birthday set, but here, I used a few extra number to celebrate a graduation.  

I die cut the numbers from white cardstock, stamped the numbers with Avery Elle's pigment ink (Aquamarine, Raspberry, Fizz and Mimosa) and embossed the stamped die cuts with some clear embossing powder.  I stamped and embossed the balloon strings and adhered the balloons to the card using foam tape. The card base is from the Caribbean note card collection. 

Be sure to stop by the Avery Elle blog today for even more inspiration from my talented teamies!  

Thanks for stopping by!
