I threw this card together tonight for a friend's daughter who will be graduating from a local high school with a full ride to Arizona State University.
The school's colors are Red White and Blue (best I can tell from their website) so I used Night of Navy, Real Red and Whisper White. I used VersaMark and Gold Embossing Powder. It looks so much prettier in person.
Notice the envelope? On the front I stamped the Mortar Board (why DO they call it that?) in Real Red and Night of Navy and on the back "The Tassel Was Worth the Hassel" all from the stamp set Pure Gumption. I just LOVE this set. Sadly it is retiring, but I think I may hang on to it since it is so nice for Graduation.
Inside is stamped "Dedication, Fortitude and Pure Gumption".
I dressed it up with a few jewels and it looks like stars in the sky, perfect for the bright future.
Thank you for looking in today! Can you smell the weekend yet? It's Friday Eve!
