Today's quick tip video will show you an easy way to thread the bakers twine through the button holes and also a faux button tie! I wanted a quick card with some bling to express how many "Oh Happy Day's" we have had since our 30 something daughter went back to college last fall.
She is going to school full time, working as much as she can and still finds time to spend quality time with her awesome daughter. As you can see it won't be long and our 9 year old granddaughter will tower over me. They take after my hubby.
She called this her faux graduation, as the college only has one ceremony a year and she will finish up with summer quarter. Her "real" tassel will be gold as she has made the President's list every semester. So I wanted the card to reflect her gown color and gold tassel.
Gold is all the rage in card making these days and Stampin' Up! has lots of fun gold embellishments. Gold Foil Paper, Gold Bakers Twine, Gold Embossed Paper and Gold Sequin Trim all featured in this card! But there is more in the catalog you may want to check it out.
