Easy Graduation Card With Waffle Flower Postage Collage Dies
In this video project, I made an easy graduation card using the Waffle Flower Postage Collage Die, Waffle Flower Postage Collage Blocks Die, and Echo Park Graduation Paper Collection. All products used for this project are listed below.
Measurements
A2 Card Base: 4 1/4 x 5 1/2" when folded
8 1/2 x 5 1/2", Scored at 4 1/4"
Postage Collage Die: 3 3/4 x 5"

Card Instructions
For this card, I went through the package of the Echo Park Graduation Paper Collection, and picked out a few patterned papers I wanted for the postage collage. I measured the windows of the Waffle Flower Postage Collage Blocks Die, and cut out small pieces of the patterned paper to fit in the windows. I then taped the pieces of patterned paper to the back of the die using Easy See tape, and ran the die through my Mini Empress machine. This cut the patterned paper into rectangles that can be placed on top of the Waffle Flower Postage Collage die perfectly.
I cut the Waffle Flower Postage Collage Die from Altenew Jet Black cardstock, and this panel measures 3 3/4 x 5″ when cut out. In the video, I show my favorite trick for popping the tiny die cut holes out easily and quickly. I then used my Tim Holtz Guillotine trimmer to cut a piece of Tonic Studios Welsh Gold Glitter Cardstock measuring 4 x 5 1/4″.
Next I glued all the rectangles on the postage collage die cut in their correct spots using my Glue Press. Once those were on, I added black foam tape to the back of the postage collage die cut, avoiding the holes in the die cut. Next I added the postage collage die cut on top of the Welsh Gold glitter cardstock panel, and then used my Scrapbook Adhesives tape runner to attach the panel to the card base.
Finishing up the card
The Echo Park Graduation paper collection includes a sticker sheet, and I decided to use the stickers on the card front for the sentiment. I chose a fun Congrats sticker, as well as a graduation cap and star sticker. This finished off the card nicely. Such an easy card to make!
