Lori Whitlock Graduation Cards Tutorial

It's that time of the year to make a stack of Graduation cards!

This post is a tutorial on the Lori Whitlock Blog today.

 I chose several files that really gives you a lot of bang for your buck! These files include multiple years to use in the future as well! I have made these cards numerous times over the years because they really are so classy looking and are so fast and easy to make! 

They are easy to personalize by changing up the colors to reflect your school colors. You can then add school initials or add the grads name etc.

Instructions for a Silhouette: enlarge the file by 200% by choosing the symbol that looks like a slash (highlighted in blue-top on the left side)  and click 200%. That was pretty easy right? Sorry-I'm not familiar on how  you do that on the Cricut.

 I always like to add a white center inside my cards, it's an especially fun detail if you have a shaped card.

For this inside insert I took the 2026 from the file and after selecting the 2026 you can right click and choose release compound path(about 2/3rd down the list)  From there you can pull the outline away and delete all the little pieces.

After cutting out the Congrats Grad pieces -leave all the letters stuck to the mat. It is easier to grab the center parts of the letters and see where to glue them.

I just made this one because it was fast and easy.  I decorated the grad hat like I have seen the grads decorate theirs! 

I hope you have found some Graduation inspiration!
