Sending you loads of Birthday Wishes

I have a nephew that I needed to make a birthday card for this month so I thought I would use this dump truck punch to make this card.  I generated a computer sentiment when I realized that I didn't have one to fit this the way I wanted.

2017 Congratulations Grad

My step-son is graduating from Charleston University of SC with an Education degree this upcoming weekend.  His Father taught college for 36 years and would be so proud of him, and it is unfortunate that he is not on earth to see it.  I know he will be watching from the stars and I plan to send this card and a gift for him.  He has worked so hard to get through the program as well as working.  This image is from Gerda Steiner and the sentiment is from TLC, Create.
