Get tickled about graduation

I was asked to make a couple of masculine grad cards and I am going to need a couple of those myself.  Still using up those feathers that friend Judy sent me.  I have a couple of them left.  It worked wonderfully well on here.  I had these three scraps lying on the desk and they all worked together.  The wood grain was a necessity.  It looked a bit un-done before I embossed it.  I am entering this into Simon's Die Crazy Wednesday challenge.
