Graduation Centerpiece with Sizzix Twist Cube

Triple Play Week 2 Features Karen Buniston’s TWIST Cube Die from which I created a Graduation Centerpiece.

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

Graduation Centerpiece with Sizzix Twist Cube
It was perfect for a  Graduation Announcement and Centerpiece!

 

Graduation Centerpiece with Sizzix Twist Cube 2
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:
Sizzix Twist cube die
Sizzix Big Shot
  Die Cuts with a View black card stock
Zip Dry
Check out Karen’s YouTube video for details on how to put the Twist Cube together.
