Besides being Mother's Day weekend, it's also time for Graduations. And a very popular gift for grads happens to be money or gift cards. So I decided to use the cupcake paper flower gift bag idea and make it into something that would be perfect to present a gift card to the Grad!

When I think of graduation, I think of Red, White and Black. Maybe because those were my school colors . And I just happened to have the perfect cupcake papers and ribbon in those colors to make this card. Here's how~
Gather up your supplies - any color will work
Get an envelope and glue ribbon on
Turn the large black cupcake paper inside out
Fold the dotted cupcake papers into fourths and hot glue to the inside
Continue with any color combinations and add smaller cupcake papers. Use a button to finish the center. Then glue the entire cupcake flower onto the seam of the ribbon. For some reason, I always stop taking photos about half way through my projects. I might have had that problem in school, maybe stopped listening about half way through class. Really I should not be saying that because this is about graduation. Accomplishments of all those who listened.
I did listen to my inner voice telling me to create some cookies.
