Smarty Pants Grad Card

For the Z Fold Easel Card fold I used this tutorial:
 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1L4unNoY_Io  from Dawns Stamping Thoughts I cut an extra small piece for the inside fold on mine and then went with my own elements and design layout. 

That really cool large background words paper is from paper wishes HOTP Busy scrappers School Pages stack.  It has some really neat words on it from high school like most likely to succeed, prom, School Dance, College Bound,Gym, Home Ec, Arithmetic and more... Soooo Fun!

The other two smaller cuts are from some pretty scraps in my stash.  I used the star blast edgelits die to cut matching purple cardstock which I placed slightly under the pattern paper.  The sentiment mats are from Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Three die Stack in two sizes.  The sentiment and owl are from Darcie Stamps - Smarty Pants.  I used the two small stars from the edge die to accent the sentiment.
I went over all 5 Star cutouts on the edger with wink of Stella clear glitter pen and also the 2 small stars on the sentiment mat.

On the inside I cut another pattern paper from my scraps and cut it out with the large stitched rectangle - Bundle of Stitched Shapes - Simon Says Stamp dies
I stamped sentiments from two different stamp sets
For someone very special - YNS - Cupcake Day Stamp set
Congrats Graduate - Stampin up Wooden stamp set - All Year Cheer III - Stampin Up 2002
The diploma is from the same Darcie - Smarty pants stamp set
The stars are the other three left from the star burst edge die cut
