There’s no doubt what my Pittsburgh teams wear- black and gold… Go Steelers, Go Penguins, Go Pirates !! I mashed it up with the Friday Mashup #112 using these colors and keeping it clean and simple. I made my graduation cap with a hexagon and a diamond die. I was also inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #88. And, since it is graduation season- I got ahead by making a card I will be needing in a couple of weeks.

Fantastic job mashing it up, thanks so much for playing along with us at The Friday Mashup (and go Boston Bruins! hehehehe)
Well, we are out…congrats for your team, Lisa !
Wait…no we aren’t…duh!
Lisa, thanks for your kind words about my card, and we shall see who prevails…GO PENS!!! (She says smiling….)
Since my Bruins are playing your Penguins and the series is far from over I’ll give you a pass on your color choice, but you get an A+ on everything else! This is a great graduation card! Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches!
Oh my, looks like there’s some friendly rivalry going on in the card world with the PENS and the Bruins…and thank you greatly, Jen for being able to comment so kindly on my card;) Now, I really want to see the outcome of this series….
You win, Jen! Just lost in overtime…Congrats to your Bruins!
Oh, we play again…still in…
Hey Cindy – your card is absolutely gorgeous! I just love this colour combo and as I have no idea about the team colours you and Jen are talking about I’m not influenced at all! Loving the matching chevrons in texture and DSP! Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!
Thanks so much, Narelle. I appreciate your kind comments and so enjoy your blog;)
Love your sentiment stamped over the chevron oval… lovely layering! Thanks for joining the Friday Mashup this week.
Thanks, Heidi. I hadn’t realized the whole chevron on chevron until I was actually putting it together…lol!
I LOVE this Cindy! Great graduation card.
