Graduation Card


`

It has been quite a week. It was our 32nd anniversary, my son turned 26 yesterday and he graduated from college today! We are so proud of him.



He is our adventure child and we never know where he is going or what he will be doing. He is off to Idaho at the end of June. I will miss him terribly....

Below is the card I made for his special day.


Here is what I used:
Papers from my stash
Magnolia stamp Graduation Edwin
Embossing folder
Copic Markers
Ribbon
Congratulations sentiment

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Midweek Magnolias- Week #11 Big White Space

Just Magnolia - Week 157 - A Fun Sketch for YOU!!

Simon Says Stamp Challenge-Simon Says.......Clean & Simple!


Here are my gorgeous flowers from my amazing husband!!!

  9. Fabulous card. I guess I need this stamp because I had several in the family already graduate and no male image to use. Love the design on this card.
