This is a high school graduation card for my niece. I decided to make it a tri-shutter card using her school's colors of maroon and gold and white.
The main background is Basic Black, then each section is matted with shimmer gold and Rich Razzleberry cardstock. The graduate girl is a digital stamp from Sassy Studio Designs, colored with Copics, cut out and popped up. I also cut out and popped up the diploma and graduation cap. Each of the sections is sponged with Old Paper Distress Ink to give it an aged paper look. The Eleanor Roosevelt quote and the words background stamp are stamped on vellum with SazOn black ink.

Your card is a work of art and your niece is one lucky girl to receive this! Can't imagine how long it must have taken you to make it. It was well worth the time spent as you did a fantastic job on it! tfs
