We have many Graduation Open Houses to go to this year, so I had to come up with something to hold all of that money! I have some enveloped from a friend who worked at a printer and the envies measure 7 3/4" x 3 3/4", the perfect size to hold money. This first card uses the owl from Forest Friends, the leaves from the Bird and Branch punch, and the greeting is from Teeny Tiny Wishes. On the inside, I stamped "Congratulations" and glued two more branches on either side of the word.
This is a feminine version of the money holder. Little Layers Plus (retired), Scribbles Swirls embosslit, some edging and a ribbon and voila! You're done.
For the inside, I used Well Scripted from the Spring Mini Catalog and more of the Swirls Scribbles embosslit. It's a bit hard to see, but there is a flap that is folded up and adhered with Sticky Strip. Before gluing that down, I punched a half oval out of the center of the flap so that the kids could get to their money. I'll post dimensions and score lines in a day or two.
Well, thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Blessings,
Julie
Hi! Yes, it's been forever since I posted. So sorry about that!

Oh yeah! I was able to go to my oldest son's junior high class at Shoreline Christian School to stamp a card with them. The focus was the Big Shot, but I also had them doing a lot with the punches. We kept this fairly simple so that it would require little instruction and so that 21 kids who signed up for this could all make the card during one class period. The kids all did a wonderful job, some following the sample card and some going off on their own to make a completely different card. I love seeing how one card design can morph into many others. Hope you enjoyed the story. I'll post some graduation money holders next.
