Hal's graduation

On graduation cards for our grandkids, I try to include important aspects of their lives - sometimes difficult to do, without having a cluttered look.  This represents his high school, choice of college, and his interest in horseback riding.  I could have included a lot more!  I used a copy of the HS logo from the graduation announcement; clip art for "class of"  (there were some great ones available!) and I also found the Jayhawk through Google.  The DP is K& Company.  Note for the Eureka challenge - this horse is pretty much in the air - not sure about the Jayhawk!  The confetti is also in the air.  The card is 4.75x6.5.
