What a quick and simple card to make for a Graduation! I received the directions from a fellow stamper, Rosanne Sammler, she was so sweet to share them with me...that's what Stampin' is all about!!! I have added the directions for you.
I used The Pure Gumption retired Stamp Set, a retired brad, Baker's Twine and don't forget to put sticky strip on only 3 of the edges of the inside piece so you can create a "pocket".
Begin
with a piece of card stock that is 9 3/4" by 4 1/4". With the
regular score board (straight lines) place you card stock so that the 9
3/4" edge runs along the top of the score board. Score from top to
bottom at 5 1/2" Now you will want to change your scoreboard
to the diagonal board. Again lay your card stock so that the 9 3/4"
edge runs along the top of the score board. Score from the 2 1/8"
mark straight down until you are off the paper--this line will cross over the
straight line you did before. Flip the card stock over so that the
opposite 9 3/4" edge runs along the top of the score board and do the same
score from the 2 1/8" mark. Now you will change your card stock so
that the 4 1/4" edge is at the top of the card and score from the 2
1/8" mark again. This line be from the center of the top and come
down to meet the first score line. Flip the card stock to get the same
score on the opposite side. You card stock should now look like the image
below. You will cut out the grey areas and then fold on all scorelines
until it lays like shown in the above pictures.
After your card is folded you will need a square piece of card
stock for the hat layer that is 2 3/4" square--and the insert is 4"
by 3"--be sure to only attach the insert on the two sides and the bottom
so you can insert money or gift card, I used sticky strip so I knew it would hold...but only attach it to the inside of this piece on 3 sides.
I hope you have as much fun making them as I did!
