This is my second Suffolk University graduation card this year. This one is for my nephew's girlfriend who just graduated last weekend. I've been really stumped on graduation cards this year, so I figured I'd peruse the inspiration site today for some ideas. I've combined this bedding with this sconce for this card. The bedding reminded me of this EF and I decided to do Lyn's "Emboss Emboss" technique on it. But today I used an embossing marker to color the raised design. I like the kind of sparse coverage I got this time around. Then I printed "Class of 2019" on vellum for the inside of the diamond frame. Finally, I went looking through my graduation stamps and found this Tiddly Inks digi that came with graduation cap and sunglasses as accessories. Maggie likes cute critters, so I think she'll be happy with this card. And I'm hooked on action wobbles this week, so why not make him wobble, right?

That digi is fun! I like the double emboss technique, and your card looks great. She will love it!

I like the sentiment layout mirroring the mortarboard. An embossing marker is certainly effective in only embossing the raised areas but I'm not sure I'd have the patience.
