Sizzix Triple Play Blog Hop Week 2 Twist Cube

Triple Play Week 2
Features Karen Bunistons
TWIST Cube Die

I had never worked with a
POP-UP Die
so was not sure what to expect....
Several ideas for projects came to mind
once I started to play....
and this is what I came up with


 It was perfect for a 
Graduation Announcement
and Centerpiece!


 It was fun and easy to make!


 I used info from my son's
graduation a couple years ago!


I added Black corrugated cardboard
to the top and bottom for 
added stability.


I can imagine a table filled with 
these for all sorts of celebrations!


And they truly do fold down flat....
The announcements that would be mailed out
would not have the top piece added,
I would make graduation hats from card stock
and a tassel with fibers so they would be mailable!

My youngest is graduating
this year so I think I will be playing
with the TWIST Cube Die
a lot in the next few months!

The following products were used for this project:

Check out Karen's YouTube video
for details on how to put the Twist Cube
together.

Enjoy the rest of the Triple Play Blog Hop
and be sure to check out next weeks
Project!
