Congrats Grad

I thought I'd make a card for my son.  The kids have a little ceremony at the end of fifth grade before they venture on to middle school.  It's so hard for me to keep it masculine, but I think I did okay.  (Oh, and please ignore how crooked the sentiment is.  Oops, I bet you noticed now!)


I used From the Heart's sketch # 20

    I think this is a great masculine card honey... you've definitely kept it "non girly" smiles.

    As for the "wonky" sentiment I love it... not everything has to be symmetrical - lol.. :0)

    It's a fabby creation... hats off to you!

    Thank you so much for joining us at Crafty Ribbons and Good Luck!

    Hugs,

    It's so hard to look masculine already when you wearing a gown and a cap with a tassel - good job with this masculine graduation card!
