This is for a niece who will graduate next week - I go online to find HS and/or college logos to use, and I think these worked pretty well together. (The HS is in Fort Collins CO). I like the lovely background that results from dry embossing (Cuttlebug Congratulations) shimmery cardstock. I have a small piece of DP with diplomas and mortar boards - I added some chalk to blend in. The ribbon is two kinds - dark green and metallic edged gold. I needed some bits at the top right - I used some sparkly gems - I do have trouble getting them to work with this embossing!
