My oldest dgs is graduating next weekend, and I need to make him a card.
Do you have some pic's of cards you have made or received, or do you have pins you have saved of masculine grad cards? A link to some inscriptions or sentiments?
Any ideas would be helpful...

If you like simple, you could do something like I did...I bought the little decorations at Michaels...or, you could make your own individual pieces similar to them. ETA:Made the little cap myself with just a black square, and green glitter "washi".  |

You could easily change the background to something more masculine |

Thanks, Ladies! Love yours, KikiPea, but couldn't figure out how to get the hat right. Fortunately my stamps and dies came from TE, so I could use them. I am going to pin some of those, refugeepea! Love all the texture. I ended up doing this card, but I will store the others for future use. I have a grandniece graduating from high school and a dgd graduating from her elementary school in June.

Fantastic card grammadee ! The embossing really makes it !!! Thanks! I didn't explain this part in my Flickr post, but I actually double embossed. Once I had stamped, applied the powder, and heated it, I didn't think the words stood out enough. But fortunately, I had used my Precision stamp press, so it was easy to reapply the VersaMark and then reapply the ep. After the second heating, I was happy with the way the sentiments stood out from the background. |
