It's grad time

I had the pleasure of attending the graduation ceremonies at CSULB again yesterday along with the fabulous faculty and grad students in my department.  

It's always an exciting day for all - a celebration of all that hard work.  I find it especially fun to see all of the *uber* excited undergraduates earning their bachelors (and their enthusiastic families, off in the bleachers, with big signs and horns).  

It did remind me that I had a fun graduation card (yet to be given to the recipient) that I could share with you all today.  

I made this card a few weeks ago, and I know I copied the lay-out from someone else (and I'm afraid I can't remember who - so sorry!) - I was drawn to the simplicity and the opportunity to play with fun patterned papers.  

I almost passed out when I saw that Hero Arts put one of my favorite sentiments on a stamp - I thought that it would be the perfect sentiment to put on a graduation card as sort of a, "Wow!  You actually did it!" kind of moment! haha! I realize school may come easy for some, but I always had to work really hard at it and understand the blood sweat and tears aspect.  

I'd like to say congratulations to all of you out there that have reached such a milestone this year, a huge shout out to you!
