As many of you already know. I have a daughter and a son, between the two of them, they have blessed me with 5 wonderful grandsons! And I love all those rascals to pieces ... all FIVE of them!
This year, my oldest Grandson, Andrew, is graduating from High School ... Hurray for the Class of 2010! Andrew has asked that I make his graduation announcements for him. I've been pondering how to do this for a couple of months now ... but I can not wait much longer ... this announcements need to be mailed ASAP!
Here is my first draft ... I'd love to get some input ... all comments are welcome. But please send your comments as quickly as possible ... I am on a deadline, so time is of the essence.
This is a very rough draft. On the face of the announcement, I plan to make the cap a little larger and do a better tassel, and diploma a little smaller, maybe ink it a bit so it shows up more too. (his school colors are black and orange)

BTW ... the vellum lifts up to reveal the graduation picture.
(again, click on image to see full size)
I hope you enjoyed your visit here today and liked my Graduation Announcement card ... Don't forget, this is just a rough draft of the card ... so please leave a comment to share your thoughts with me, I'd really love to know your thoughts on this! As always … thank you for stopping by to visit me here at my Little Creation Corner.
Have a great day, and HAPPY CRAFTING!
Hugz,
♥Carol♥

I know you are the beaming grandma. It is such a great accomplishment. Congrats to the young man and your family. Some kids don't realize the importance of an education. The invites are beautiful.
Congrats Carol to you and your grandson. I think it needs something else on the front, maybe a symbol of something he did in high school or the mascot? On the left bottom is where I am talking but I like how they are now too!
Carol I like it the way it is as announcemnts are extremely simple and elegant and this card is all of that and more!!! WOW!

Carol, This is absolutely stunning. I wouldn't change a thing. Shari (cricutrookie)
WOW! Those look fabulous! How lucky is Andrew to have such a talented Grandma!!!!! I wish I would have had a Grandma who could have done something like that for me! They are perfect just the way they are Carol!
Congratulations!!!!! Love the announcement and I'm thrilled for your grandson. My grandson isn't quite two yet, maybe preschool graduation announcements for me in a couple of years...
Um, WOW! That card is AWESOME!
I love the details you chose, and how simple and clean it looks. Also, the sentiment "... new tomorrow" is GREAT!
Carol your card is adorable and love how it has the two panels in the front. The inside of the card is so unique and so personal and precious.
