Cathy's challenge today is to use complmentary colors on our cards. It should be a bright and cheery gallery today. I had to make a graduation card for my Godchild, so I knew what colors I would be using. The local high-school colors are purple and gold. I colored an image I had stamped along time ago. Added some score lines, and gold lines with a copic. Added brads. Since I'm going to hand write the wish inside, I wrote his name and date. tfl

What a nice graduation gown, and those colors are wonderful, Linda! Caleb graduated from JMU 2 weeks ago, and these are the university's colors too! You did a beautiful job with this card!
