Yesterday was such a wonderful day for my family, especially my husband.  He was able to participate in a graduation ceremony for earning his masters degree.  Working full time, teaching early morning religion classes, and completing his program in eighteen months with straight A’s.  Congratulations to a Wonderful Man, truly.  A card doesn’t sum up an accomplishment like that, but I needed somewhere to write the words that would.  Perfect solution.

The new stamp set Happy Birthday, Everyone is obviously more versatile that just birthdays.  I used  one of the many phrases included in this host set to make my background paper.  I just stamped it over and over again, not even trying to be straight, and it turned out pretty well.  I added the congratulations from the Sassy Salutations set.  I used black paper as well to emphasize the main sentiment, all about the congratulations here.

Even though it was for my husband, I though I could get away with a little of the dotted lace trim.  Almost compulsory there since it is new and coordinates so well.  I only used a tiny amount, no bows or anything.  Welcome to yet another wonderful In-Color.  Glad to have you Delightful Dijon!

Have a creative day,

Moana
