A black side fold slimline design with a white layer. The black layer was cut at an angle to look like Mason's graduation cap. Before gluing down to the white I added my pink brad and the tassel. Digi printed both headlines and added black trim to both of my hand-cut banners. The touch of pink was for the Music Dept color code for his graduation. The inside was stamped below the Digi printed greeting, die cut, and glued to a black layer. Finished with a stamped small framed degree in the bottom corner. I haven't made cards of late as I'd fallen while transferring from my wheelchair and tore the rotator cuff on my good arm!

Love the clever way you created the mortarboard for this card and the nod to the Music Dept with the pink. That insider sentiment about going in the direction of your dreams is fabulous. The whole card is fabulous. Great keepsake card for a great Grandson from a very proud Grandmother.

A perfect creation for the graduate. I can tell so much thought was put into it and I am sure it will be appreciated. I have been wondering about you and if you were o.k. I am so sorry to hear about your fall and injury. Take care and hope you mend before too long.

Beautiful graduation card. I like the layout design on the front with the tassel and 2023. Wonderful on the inside, too. So sorry to hear of your fall and injury. I hope you heal quickly and can get back to card-making more often. Hugs!
