First Graduation Card!

My god son celebrated his graduation from High School in July, and I made my first graduation card, using the Family Owl from Marianne Design Collectables Cutting Dies for the first time. I love that owl!!!
The garland and the sentiments are from the Marianne Design set "Let's Party". The colors from the garlands are so bright because I used the heat embossing technique.
