I have created a clean and simple graduation card using one of the book images and the starburst on a diamond die cut to represent a mortar board. I added a tassel underneath from the Baroque Eggs stamp set. I coloured the images with pencils. I coloured the centres of the starburst image with a gold Wink of Stella pen for a bit of sparkle. I added a flourish in the corners of the card from the Butterfly Daisy Collage stamp set, and finally stamped a sentiment from the Loving Sentiments stamp set onto a small tag.

Hi Judith, fabulous card and great use of stamps, brilliant inspiration and it means of course getting more use out of the stamps, lovely colour combo too, Kate x
A really classic design which really catches the eye. I love the precision of it with the swirly corners perfectly framing the more angular central motif. The contrast between the gold & black onto the brilliant white makes this very classy & - as you say - the design is easily adaptable to university colours. Great use of what some might consider rather a seasonal/limited stamp set otherwise.

What a clever use of these stamps Judith! I love that book image and the starburst but would never have thought to use them for this purpose. Using the diamond shape and tassel image is inspired!
