I found this video while I was looking for a graduation idea for my cap. Hearing your story reminds me of my own. I ended up taking a year off from college, as well. Of course it was a different reason. However, my mom passed away this January and I absolutely love the idea of adding her to my graduation cap. I know how proud she would have been and I just want to say thank you for the inspiration.
Came here for a craft project tutorial…leaving in tears. wow I totally didn’t see that coming 🥺 my mom passed too, I don’t think I’ll ever not get emotional at this topic. You’re so strong, girl! Thanks for sharing your heart and your creativity with all of us!
@@AmyMakesThat it’s all good, darling! They’re healing tears. I know it’s a club we all hate to be in, but at least we’re in it together and nothing feels as healing to me as when I come across someone else who “gets it”
I am SO glad you're on track now. It took me a long time also so I understand. There were a LOT of reasons why for me a too. However, when my career was taking off, Really taking off, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and put out of work 2 months later....I was in my late twenties. I had had it for 5-7 yrs before I was dx'ed. I always thought "Dang, if I feel like this in my twenties I can't imagine what my thirties will be" LOL! It was really really hard for a long time and in all honesty it still is, even after 23 yrs. One of my nephews, when he was a toddler, taught me to find humor. There IS humor in almost anything if one chooses to look for it. Now I could do a set as a stand up comedian just on MS. I pray you are well and succeeding in your chosen career and life. I am so sorry to her about the loss of your Mother. I just lost my Dad 4 Months ago and I'm still not handling well, even at my age (52). I know at your age it must be harder. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Thank you thank you thank you I was just about to pay for my graduation cap to be made and then the idea of making my own had just popped in my head out l don’t want to pay for something if I could just make it myself ♥️☺️
Crazy I found this while trying to make my cap. I literally have the same story. I got sick and had to leave school and now I have 3 months left until graduation. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Jasmin! I used permanent vinyl and didn't have any problems with it sticking -- you can always use mod podge or polycrylic before applying the vinyl and that should help!!

How do you get the words to stay on glitter cardstock? Do you mod podge??
Hi Jasmin! I used permanent vinyl and didn't have any problems with it sticking -- you can always use mod podge or polycrylic before applying the vinyl and that should help!!
