Simple Graduation Project for your grad

The school year is coming to a close over here and although my circle is filled with kids who are graduating this May, I know there are a lot of them!!

I decided to design this alternate version of a knockout text keychain (could be a tag to add to a gift too!) and thought I'd give you some ideas on how you can use it!

  • You can alter the text to personalize it by adding a first name.

  • Add a school name below 2022 also!

  • Tie this to a gift bag as a personalized gift tag

  • Turn this into a Gift Card Pocket (You'll see a tutorial for this next week!)

  • Earrings? (ooh I'd be the Mama wore those at my kids graduation!)

  • Add a quote below or even around inner stroke so the quote is a the border of the design (see how to do that in this tutorial on how to type on a path)

You get the point right? Learning how to do a simple effect like this one can be altered in so many ways! Which is why I love teaching people how to do it!

 

What I'm using:

  • Adobe Illustrator version 2021

What you'll learn:

  • Knock out effect using pathfinder
