Graduation Card and Gift Box

My oldest son just graduated from kindergarten!  What a fun experience for him!  He was so excited for it and was talking about it for weeks before hand.  To make it extra special for him, I made these projects and I am happy to say, he loved them both.

This diploma card was made using SVG files from the Graduation Trio set at My Scrap Chick.  I thought the whole design was so clever!
This just shows the dimension that I added to the different layers of the card.  I made an envelope for the card using the polka dot paper you see behind the card.
This graduation hat was from the Graduation Day SVG kit from SVGCuts.  I decided to make it with cardstock from DCWV's Grade School stack because I thought it encompassed the kindergarten theme very well.  I made the tassel following the instructions that SVGcuts showed in their video tutorial for this kit. It was easy peasy!
 Here it is opened showing little goodies that were inside :)
I hope you enjoyed these projects!  I think they fit perfectly for the  Gift Packaging Challenge in the Moxie Fab World and for the Clearly iStamp Celebration Challenge.

Have a wonderfully crafty day!
