Rad Grad

I recently found this House Mouse stamp in the clearance aisle and thought it would make a cute graduation card.  Here's my take on it!
Supplies used:
  • Smarty Pants stamp (House Mouse)
  • Kraft Cardstock
  • Misc. Paper scraps from my scrap bin
  • Sewing machine
  • Watercolor pencils
  • Sharpie markers 
Inside I stamped one of my favorite sentiments for graduates: You have knowledge, let others light their candles at it -- Margaret Fuller
