Default great recycle

I used to also do this, recycling the graduation invitation.
now a lot of invite are not the expensive invites, but always look
to using this when U get those invites, so nicely done, especially the addition of gold thread to carry through color theme

Here are some I did.

I'm stuck, I was in a craft sale back in April for a local town and was told to make several graduation cards. No problem, except I was asked to make them in that town's school colors. Well, I made 20 cards in black and gold and only sold 2. So now I have all these black and gold grad cards left and no other towns around that are those colors. Oh well.

These are awesome! I love the lace color and silk tie!

This thread is great! I've looked it the gallery for grad cards before, but I might not otherwise have come across the ones posted in blogs!

Here's one I came up with the other day. Since I had no actual graduation stamps or dsp, I had to be a little more creative! Check it out on my blog: www.stampingtower.blogspot.com

That is a COOL CARD! Sometimes I think it's better when you DON'T have a specific stamp for the occasion.

I checked out all the ideas on this thread as my DD has her 8th grade graduation in a few weeks. Thanks for sharing all these great ideas, ladies. I thought I would share a couple of things I created in case it inspires someone. I do have a hard time being creative with graduation cards.

I used the school colors for my inspiration:
LSC 172 Knotty Graduation Card- Cal State Channel Islands by CAKath at Splitcoaststampers

Graduation Card UC San Francisco by CAKath at Splitcoaststampers
