Bloggers Challenge - For the Graduate!

I was excited about this week's Bloggers Challenge - For the Graduate!  I've had this set for a few months, and have been wanting to make something.  I did a card, and a smaller card...like for a gift enclosure.  I think a gift card will fit in it too though.  It's a 1/4 sheet of cardstock, folded in half.

Went to my stash of retired cardstock colors for Glorious Green - my high school colors.  Go Wildcats!!!  :)  I think I'll hold onto these, because my friend's kids graduate next year from the same high school.  Sweet!

I embossed the hat and cut it out.  Popped it up on top of the scallop punched out.  Embossed the green words too.

Stamps:  con-GRAD-ulations (Amuse)

Cardstock:  Glorious Green, Basic Black, Whisper White

Ink:  Glorious Green, Basic Black, Glorious Green Craft

Other:  Iridescent Ice embossing powder, heat gun, 1 3/8" circle punch, Scallop punch, Kelly green narrow organdy ribbon (I've been hoarding that for a reason - it's a perfect match for the Glorious Green!)
