Hello Kitty Graduation Pop Up Card

My oldest daughter is getting ready to gradute in a couple weeks from the community college she's been attending in Brunswick, GA and has been accepted to Armstrong Atlantic State University in Savannah. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend the ceremony as my other daughter is in exams with her honors classes here at home. So I wanted to create a special card and set about last night on the design and cutting and finished putting it all together this morning.
For this card I used the following cuts:

Hello Kitty & cap - 4" (outfit cut to be in the school colors)

Hello Kitty in car - 3 1/2"

Tree from Camp Out - 4 3/4"

Sun from Pooh & Friends - 1 1/2"
Pennant from Locker Talk - 1 3/4" (cut to be in the school colors)

The road was created simply by cutting a stip of black paper the length of the card and then notching to fit around the pop up pieces so that it would slide in to the center of the card for placement.

Oh I love Hello Kitty stuff and this card is just darling.
Thank you for stopping by my blog to say hello. You asked if I do my own embroidery work. Yes. I have 7 sewing machines and 3 of them are embroidery machines. I so love doing the work on them.

Oh, I just love this card. Sorry you had to miss your daughter's graduation, but sometimes things just can't be helped. Bet she loves this card though.
