Graduation Time!

Here's a card I made for a young woman who's graduating from high school this year. I took the school insignia from the invitation and layered it on red and shiny silver metallic cardstock. I scored the Real Red panel on the Scor-Pal. The class of 2009 sticker was carefully removed from the invitation envelope and adhered to the bottom of the card. The tassel was made from crochet thread and wound with silver cording. A few silver brads and I have a very special card to enclose her graduation cash in.
Thanks for stopping by today, it's always nice to hear from you :)

What a great idea to use their invitation to make their card! I'm sure she'll love it and the money too!
