I purchased the Gina K owl set a few weeks ago– Aren’t they so stinking Cute? I can’t wait for the new SU owl set!
I do not own any graduation sets so I improvised. I found in my stash of single stamps- this tiny graduation cap and it happened to fit perfect on the owls! Looks like I’ll have to add a set to my collection soon. Keep in mind that any stamp set or Large sentiment can be used for the front panel where the owls are. Just choose a larger image
Last year, during the holidays I made a bunch of money holders for my Christmas card buffet. Well, I scored 17 of them the wrong way! oops! I saved them…who can throw out 17 pieces of SU card stock??? NOT ME!!! I re-purposed them into these money holders. All 17 are old olive so I had to work with all designer papers that matched old olive.
To make these: 7 x 9 piece of card stock
score at 2 an 6.5 inches on the long side
I added the strip of paper (1 inch x 7) on all 3 versions to make the flap longer (it barely closes when plain) I used a color that coordinates with the designer paper.
the bottom pocket is closed with small eyelets
the front panel is approx. 4×3.
Recipe:
Stamps: GinaK Owl set, short and sweet, CTMH congratulations sentiment, misc graduation cap
