I realize it is Halloween but when I saw Carla's challenge I knew this was the card I was making. This is going to my boss' son for graduation. She only has one child and I know she would want a super card to give him for his graduation and this card is just that...a super card. I love playing with the magic tutorial and making this card because the results are outstanding. Her reaction when she got this in the mail was work the 6 hours it took to put this together.
Stamped the graduation caps on the white top layer.
Stamped the Unity image on the Acetate & the white layer and colored the white layer with copics. Added Gold gel pen to the colored image.
Used the Magic Card Tutorial to create the card adding an additional layer with the green framing. Finished off with a die cut pull tab and die cut sentiment layer.
I found that adding 2 small dimensionals to the top inside layer made the sliding easier when creating the magic card. It added just enough room to allow the paper to slide easier and also added a more sturdy stopping piece to stop the slide from being pulled all the way out of the card.
I would love it if you would check out my Blog: Shoe Girls Cards. Thank you for looking!

Six hours! That's why we can never charge what it really costs to make cards, but if she loved it and her son loved it, that's a great reward. I really like your extra green frame layer, it finishes it very nicely indeed.
