A single corsage with a message

@n.annlee321

I think a single-flower vase has the charm of letting you focus on one flower and cherish it. 😊💓 Single-flower corsage 🌸 I hope this is helpful. 🫶#100-yen shop DIY#100-yen store purchasesgraduation ceremony (for kindergarten/preschool)Graduation CeremonyChildcareNursery teacher / Childcare worker

It will become a cherished keepsake as a memorable item! It’s a wonderful idea that combines a message with a corsage.

What you’ll need are round origami paper, transparent origami paper, glue or adhesive, thick paper (cardstock), artificial flowers of your choice, double-sided tape, vinyl tape, safety pins, and so on.

It’s fun how the vibe changes depending on the patterns and colors of the origami, isn’t it? For the message, it’s also nice to have the children write about their dreams for the future.

Try incorporating it while enjoying the process of arranging it to your liking.

You’ve probably used craft punches for making things, right? You can find punches that cut out various shapes at 100-yen shops, and they’re easy to incorporate.

Let’s try decorating a card using these simple craft punches.

For a graduation-from-kindergarten theme, cherry blossom petals or flower-shaped punches would be perfect.

You can make a simple pop-up card just by cutting slits in the base, then glue on construction paper decorated with flowers and add a message—perfect for a card celebrating graduation.

Are you familiar with a decoration technique called paper quilling? To put it simply, it’s a method of rolling thin strips of paper to create various patterns.

Here, I’d like to introduce an idea for making a message card using paper quilling.

You wind the paper around a tool with a fine tip, and you can create not only circles but also shapes like teardrops and waves—any shape you can imagine.

Although it involves delicate work, using papers in various colors results in a vibrant, memorable card.

A card that bursts open with a big flower, perfect and festive for celebrating kindergarten graduation.

It’s a glamorous pop-up card, but the steps aren’t difficult, so it’s highly recommended.

For the large flower, use colored construction paper: trace a circle using a plate or similar object and cut it out, fold it, then round off the corners with scissors to complete the main large flower.

Sharpen the folds, glue it so the center aligns with the middle of a piece of colored paper folded in half, and you’re done.

Write a message inside the flower and decorate around it to make it even more vibrant.

A message card that can stand up for display

Of course you can use it as a message card, but here’s an idea that lets you display it just like a photo frame as it is.

The card is filled with little gimmicks and messages inside, and you can insert a photo into the part that becomes the cover.

After enjoying the messages, fold it so the cover faces front and it will stand up for display.

If you put a memorable photo on the cover and display it, it might even give strength to the children as they set off from kindergarten to their new environments.

Message cards with a cherry blossom theme are just perfect for graduation season, aren’t they? If you punch out shapes from construction paper with a craft punch, layer and paste them to create cherry blossoms, you can achieve a gorgeous decoration—highly recommended.

Sending off the children who entered during cherry blossom season with cherry blossom cards must be especially moving for the teachers as well.

While writing your thoughts to each child in the message section, please craft them with heartfelt care.

popping cracker

Simple ✩ Popping Cracker [How to Make a Message Card]

Let’s design a bursting party cracker to celebrate graduation from kindergarten.

In this idea, a paper-made cracker is attached to a folded, two-panel message card.

When you pull the string that pops out from the cracker, a hidden mechanism springs out, recreating the moment the cracker bursts.

The unexpected gimmick will surprise and delight the recipient.

It’s also nice that it stays compact and doesn’t get bulky.

Use one of the two panels for the gimmick and the other panel for writing your message.
