CONGRATS!! You did it

Yep....it's time for all those graduation parties once again!  Last year, I was asked by a co-worker to make some graduation cards. She had see a previous card I had made, and wanted the card based off of that design.  And she loved how I incorporated the school mascot into the card.

This year - another co-work asked if I could make a card for her nephew.  And it so happen that he graduated from my alma mater!!  I couldn't wait to make this card. Our school mascot is a Raider and the school colors are Purple and Gold.  A few years back, sadly my school was torn down.  Maintenance for the upkeep on the old school built I think way back in the 1920's or 30's was way to expensive. And the mascot got an 'upgrade' as well. And being that this card was for a boy, I thought the Raiders on the front was perfect.
I used Versamark and stamped graduation caps on the purple paper. Bascially creating my own DP. It was just enough to make it 'pop', but not over the top.

Well, have to run. More projects to get going on !!
