    Congrats Grad Mini Slimline Card

    Happy Monday!!

    It’s Sheri here today with a Congrats GRAD card using featuring the Falling Stars Stencil, a couple dies and some gold foil!

    Super easy to make and love the elegant design! The hardest part is waiting for the Deco Foil Trasfer Gel Duo to dry but I just worked on cutting all the layers and elements that were needed to assemble the card.


    Steps to Create Card:

    • Take a 6″ x 4″ black piece of card stock (start larger that your final panel size to allow you to pick the best area to cut out with your die), Falling Star Stencil, pallet knife, and Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo and apply a light coat. Clean stencil and set panel aside to dry. To be safe I let it dry for approximately 1 hour.
    • Cut and Score black Mini Slimline card base: 6″ x 3 1/2″ (6″ x 7″, scored at 3 1/2″ on 7″ side).
    • Cut Gold Mat: 5 5/8″ x 3 1/8″ using the Mini Slimline Never Ending die set.
    • Cut Black Stitched Mat: 5 1/2″ x 3″ using Mini Slimline Double Stitched die set.
    • Cut the letters “G“, “R“, “A“, and “D” out a total of three times to stack for dimension. You will need 2 in black and 1 in gold glitter card stock from the Condensed Uppercase Alphabet die set. Stack and glue the gold glitter letter on top of each stack. This adds dimension without the need to add foam tape.
    • Cut out the “Congrats” a total of three times in black card stock using the Congrats w/Shadow die. Stack and glue the three together.
    • Once your panel has dried, it’s time to add Gold Foil. By using the Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo you can apply the foil with or without a laminator. I used my Mini Minc to apply the foil. If you would like try without heat, here’s a great tutorial by ThermOWeb.
    • After I foiled the panel I used cut it down to 5 3/8″ x 2 3/4″ using the Mini Slimline Never Ending die set.
    • Assemble the card.
    • To finish off the inside of the card I lined the inside: Gold Glitter Mat: 5 1/2″ x 3″ using Mini Slimline Double Stitched die set, Black card stock Mat: 5 5/16″ x 2 13/16″ & White Panel: 5″ x 2 1/2″ using the Mini Slimline Never Ending die set.

    Card Measurements:

    • Black Mini Slimline Card Base: 6″ x 3 1/2″ (6″ x 7″, scored at 3 1/2″ on the 7″ side)
    • Gold Mat: 5 5/8″ x 3 1/8″
