We're away this coming weekend for a very special event, but we're missing two special graduations while we're away. Our neighbor is receiving a degree from Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School, but the really special graduation is for a former student of mine. I had Amy in fourth and fifth grade. She lost her mom to cancer in the middle of fourth grade, and she and I developed a special relationship during those two years. After she went on to middle school, we continued to get together for dinner pretty regularly until she graduated from high school. I didn't see her often while she was in college, but this past winter we reconnected. On Sunday she'll be receiving her doctorate in physical therapy. There's not much that would keep me away from the party and the ceremony, but I'll share on Sunday what did keep me away.
This card is for Amy. I used the colors of her college--navy and yellow/gold.
CASology is looking for lots of white space, this time it's lots of navy! The stamp and die are Papertrey Ink's "Celebration" set, stamped in Bright Buttercup. Using the MISTI certainly helped as it takes several stampings to get a good bright yellow. I embossed the smaller sentiment in white.
I'm linking this up to CASology: Commencement.
