Graduation Diploma



06/26/09 - Graduation Diploma - This will be the final design added to the Scholastic Graduation page for this particular year. The grand prize at any graduation ceremony is the craved graduation diploma. Usually these are constructed out of white glass and to add the details of the scroll, I have used Glassline paints. Turn this pattern into pins for everyone, or fuse the design into some other fused project for the graduation celebration.

Graduation Cap Design



06/25/09 - Graduation Cap - I am continuing to place more pages on the Scholastic Graduation web page. This is an easy and very simple graduation cap to glass fuse. Make sure you have already pre-fused a dot to add to the top of the tassel before fusing this piece. The tassel should be a color that is correct for that particular graduation school.
