So Very Proud of You

GRADUATION...

... come Spring, it seems to be in everybody's mind.

 Our High School colors are red and black and it is very difficult for me to think of any other colors when designing one.

Now that I think about it, since Jen is graduating from Davis in less than 4 months, I should may be thinking Blue and Gold...

The graduation cap is actually a petal card, and you can find the template all over in the internet. The sentiment is printed not stamped, and the red card stock is a glossy red I bought at Kelly Paper
 I usually follow Dawn Olchefske (Stampin up demonstrator) directions for the tassel.
You can find it at:

it is a very easy way of making a tassel with Gros Grain ribbon...
I run out of those and used very slim ribbon  and a square brad.
Until next time....
