Movin' On card (graduation)

Son#2 is graduating from elementary school this week.  Yikes, how did that happen?  Time really goes by in a blink (except on days that last forever while not going so well, but enough philosphy, right?).   On to the good stuff-I made him a cute card for his graduation ceremony with 3 Birds on Parade, one of my top 5 favorite carts.  Incidentally, he is the one who convinced me to buy it in the first place!   The stamp set is from TPV called Graduation, and has all kinds of handy graduation sayings and stamps with a kind of weathered look.


Cricut:
3 Birds on Parade-graduation bird cut at 33/4 in.
Stamps-TPC Graduation set, bought at JoAnns
Paper-solid cardstock is from the stash, letter print from Echo Park A Boy's Life collection
ribbon/ink-Stampin Up black

I'm going to link this to the Fantabulous Cricut challenge this week to do a graduation project-how handy since I need this for tomorrow!
