Hopes, Dreams and Aspirations

This is my card for our every other month swap for an awesome group of ladies on SCS--the SOTC--Sisters of the Traveling Cards!  Judy is our hostess for January/February--she posted the following for us to follow:

Theme: Inspiration and Blessings!
It’s been a time of reflection the past month and now a time to look forward. So I would like you to create a card that expresses your hopes, dreams, and/or aspirations, for you or someone you would like to inspire and bless.  

When I think of looking forward along with the words-hopes, dreams, and aspirations--Graduation comes to Mind!  I do not have any family member or friend who is graduating from high school or college this spring--but I was like to have a card on hand, just in case.  I went with the traditional black and white color combo, so it can be used for any school.   I hope Judy and the other SOTC gals like my card!
