Storm,

I have been working on a few examples for a friend. What do you mean by a card. My friend wanted a flyer(invitation) for the graduate to give to her friends at school and then a card to put in her school graduation announcement to invite people to open house. I found a scrap kit on Scrap girls but ended up using just two embellishments from it on the ones that my friend chose. I am including the thumbnail of the flyer and a link on the forum here I others that I was asking for some critquing. It might give you some ideas if it the type of card you are looking for. I have changed one of the small cards to include embossed lettering.

Vesta this a High School Graduation. What I give is a Congratulatory card with money in it . I have 2 Grandaughters Graduating in June.
I really like your bkg papers with the Hats on & also the 2 masks.
I googled last week & found a free site with some embellishments ,but stupid me did not put into Favs.:(
Tatla said she would call here with boy friend in Tow on Prom night so if I get some decent photos I will make a 10x8 Lo, if not its a 7x5 Card.
Congrats & an appropriate quote.
All help greatly appreciated. I thought there would be lots of free stuff out there for Grad but its mainly Spring & Mothers Day.
Thanks. Storm

Storm,sorry for the misunderstanding as to what you needed but look in your internet history; the button on the top toolbar of your browser. the web site might still be there.

Thats O.K. Vesta . From looking on the different Scrapbook sites had a feeling things were done differently .
Thats a good idea -history.
Thanks. Storm

The trend for all this is individuality. Note how the graudation/senior photos have turned into photo shoots where there are even clothing changes.

So design away - keeping the interests of the graduate in mind - don't feel you need to do a "typical" announcement/invitation.

Thank you Mark & Janice ,been out all day & only now found your replies.
I tried to join that Scrapbookflair but had problems . Have e-mailed & expect they will sort it out in the morning.
Anyway I have a few Elements now.
