GRADUATION CARD

Last year after I had finished cards for Graduation, I was in a local craft store.  I couldn't believe they actually had special scrapbook papers with the names of local schools and the mascot name.  

The card base was embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder.  A piece of the scrapbook dp was added and a strip of plain blue cardstock down the center.   The shapes are cut using Quickutz/Lifestyle dies which can be purchased here:  Creating Everlasting Memories.

Yesterday we had beautiful weather and celebrated a really great Mother's Day.  Hope all of you who are mothers had a wonderful day, too.  Thanks for stopping by.
