So today's Scrappy Saturday Free Your Creativity challenge had me thinking about the future. It's cold here in NYC and I am pining for the summer. When I think of summer, I think of things like weddings and graduation, and so I thought I would make a congratulations card for a graduate. I love the idea of moving ahead with something big and wonderful.

Trim dark green cardstock and adhere.
