If you still a graduation this weekend, here is an easy money holder  was made with the retiring ‘Great Grads’ set.   Yes, my loyal readers will know that I recycled this idea from last year!

<— I have included the directions sheet for creating this ‘money holder’… just click on the thumbnail.

This is a totally simple card that holds shut with just the slit punch.  There is nothing fancy inside (no pocket or anything) because, face it–they are just going to shake the money out and probably not even read your note!

The greeting is from Great Grads–it’s an unusual size greeting–very long and in reverse type… it was a challenge to work with.  I think that this would also be an excellent birthday card for a teenager.  I don’t think that the glitter showed up well in this photo.

The color scheme is Night of Navy & Bordering Blue cardstock stamped in Night of Navy (roller wheel also Night of Navy ink).  The 3Dstars are the small star punch  "punched out" over by the large star punch–the two Stampin’ Up! star punches coordinate very well.

Okay, so not so different from the one I posted yesterday, but I will say that I will miss “Tassle Time” because of all of the coordinating images.

It is killing me not to be able to see the new catalog… I really can’t wait!

I designed this last year and was thinking of passing it off again at my May “Stamp a Stack” but I’ve decided that I won’t be lazy, I’ll come up with another one for tomorrow night!

This is made from the soon to be retiring set “Tassle Time” in Bravo Burgundy & More Mustard.  The “hat” is two squares and some magic with a pop dot and the tassle is our black hemp and a strategically placed glue dot held into the center by a black brad.

I am trying to improve the WOW factor of my photographs and am still experimenting.
