Hello!!
This one took a few friends to a level of panic. 
 


 
The "lollipop" has 10 different round patterned circles glued to a circle backer. 
Love the glimmer brad center!!

The stick is a wooden skewer cut to size.










This card naturally has dimension due to the stick.
 
Glue Dots hold the round to the stick and the ribbon in the right spot.

 Becca, I know your journey will be wonderful, I can not wait to see where you end up!! Your dreams are strong and know that you will have my support in all your adventures!!  Sooo proud!!







raising the top tip of the "cap" with 3 dimensionals was a huge help with the cap affect. 








creating the tassel was easy with white bakers twine.  No her school colors are not represented here, but her favorite color is..
