This week's mini VSN challenge was to create a card commemorating a major life event. My nephew graduated from college, so this is for him. Blue and gold are his school colors (at least according to Wikipedia), so I used them for layering. Sentiment is gold-embossed. I didn't have any graduation-type images, so an owl seemed both vaguely appropriate and somewhat masculine (at least among my supply of stamps). Besides, the entire family is full of Harry Potter Fans, they'll love the idea of the owl holding the diploma. Owl is black-embossed. I just rolled up a snip of copy paper and tied it with cording for the diploma.
(now, sadly, I have to make another "life event card" for the same family, as my BIL's father died a few days before the graduation ceremony.)
