My Niece's College Graduation

My niece graduated from the University of MN recently. Her family had a party for her last Saturday. This is the card I made for her:


There have been several versions of this floating around the web and this is my version. The U of M colors are maroon and gold, so I used Daffodil Delight and Bravo Burgundy. The "neck" is Blushing Bride. It's hard to see in the picture, but there is a collar on the "shirt" made with the Eyelet Border Punch. I sponged Bravo Burgundy ink on the "hat" to make it stand out from the main part of the card. The "tassel" is Daffodil Delight 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon. If you pick it apart carefully it will unravel, but only 1 end works. Cut your ribbon longer than you need and try both ends to see which works, then trim to fit your project. The greeting is from Word Play.

Congratulations Lindsey! We're proud of you!
