I made this graduation card for my cousin's son who is graduating this summer and going onto college in the Fall. For the background, I did the Polished Stone technique and I watched this video. For mine, I used Stampin Up ink pads refills and rubbing alcohol onto glossy card stock (I only had Yupo glossy cardstock to use)
