graduation gift card mini album | doodlebug design

Hello friends! I'm excited to share a little project I made for my favorite graduate with the amazing "Hats Off!" collection from Doodlebug Design!  (The little album I used is a cut file in the silhouette store.) I know...it doesn't look like much - but just wait until you see the inside! I needed to keep the outside kind of flat so the entire piece could be thrown in a purse or backpack.  Because, truly, they are going to want to keep this gift close after they head off to college!  (Oh, and don't miss that fun velcro closure!)

 It's a mini accordion album...with pockets!  Here's a closer look at the inside of the front cover - then we'll get to the meat of it! ;)

Each little pocket is the perfect size for holding a giftcard!  Of course, every grad needs to head to Target to buy supplies for college!

Oh, and food.  Every college freshman needs to be spoiled every once in a while - when they are tired of ramen or mac & cheese, they can pull out their handy-dandy gift and treat themselves to a delicious meal out!  And don't miss that awesome graduation cap paper clip on the right page - it's the cutest!

 And the perfect gift for any grad - especially your FAVORITE grad?
Cold. Hard. Cash.  It fits perfectly in the pocket as well. ;)

The last page is perfect for this little grad owl and his special message for your graduate:

 Don't forget to embellish the back of the closed album:
It's the perfect sticker (with awesome metallic silver) for the back - the perfect message for a new graduate!

graduation hat gift boxes | pebbles inc.

It's Graduation season, which means it's the perfect time to make a cute, quick graduation gift. For today's project, I chose to use our high school colors to represent my favorite colors -- black and gold (yellow)!  And since I have a handful of grads I want to celebrate, I thought I'd share the super quick and easy gift idea I'm using this year!  I wanted to create something simple and quick that I could create in a few hours.  I landed on this cute cut file, and the rest was history!  Here's a peek:

   I used a cut file from the Silhouette store (design #75119) to create these cute little graduation cap boxes.

It's fun to have a mix of patterns, especially if the gift boxes will all be displayed together.Now I can fill the boxes with treats, cash (every grad's fave) or a special note. Wouldn't these be fun favor boxes for a graduation party?  Or they could even be place cards for a graduation dinner!

So many fun possibilities, but today, I'm sticking to filling them up with these cute little cookies that are also sporting our school colors! Happy Crafting!
