Good morning all!! Whew!! Today is going to be a busy day!! I have a marker class to get ready for tonight, a party at my house tomorrow night, and then a big class on Friday where we are making paper bag books!! I do this to myself evertime...I say, oh I have plenty of time, and then, all of a sudden, it's time and I have to get myself in high gear, lol!! It all works out though *wink* So, today I wanted to share a grad invite that a friend of mine (and my new downline) and I made for her upcoming graduation from Chico State - this gal is amazing: her husband is in Iraq, she has been trying to finish her degree while prepping for his deployment, taking care of the house, etc. AND is a 4.0 HONORS grad from the University!! Amazing, right?! And, fabulously talented and creative to boot!! So, she came on over to the house, we picked out the colors of the school, and went to work! We had such a great time putting these together....and yes, we made a lot of them!! We went with a pocket card, it works so well for invites and they are easy to mail, lol!

Here is the pic with the insert pulled out - didn't they come out nice? She was really happy with them which is all that really matters! So, I will leave you the recipe, and I am off to do about a million things before class tonight! Thanks for stopping by today, I will be blurfing later...I can't resist, I tell ya!! I will be back tomorrow with some fun things to share!

ReplyDeleteAs birthdays, engagements are important in a person’s life in the same way graduation day also has the same importance in the life of a person. Graduation ceremony is just like achieving a goal in one’s life.
