My dear friend Gill, whom I have known since she was four years old, is graduating from college next month. I made this card for her with her school colors: black, red, and white. Hopefully I didnÂ’t break too many Sketch Challenge rules by using a circle instead of a square. I usually stick to the sketch pretty closely, but I just had to use that big round G for Gill!

Striking card! A great keepsake for your friend. I like the use of the big eyelet.

OK Vera your comment on my card made me come look at yours. I love your grad card. The colors are so bold and striking. I love the jumbo white grommet you used on the ribbon. This stamp set is perfect for grads. Nice that your grads name begins with "G" also. TFS!
