Card: Graduation Time

It's getting to be that time of year; graduation season is just around the corner!  I made this card last year - hence the "2010"!   The recipient of this card is a young man who aspires to become a comedian so two elements on this card are a reference to that.  Reference number one is the Charlie Chaplin figure and reference number two is the script to the right of the sentiment which is an excerpt from Mark Twain's "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County."  If you click on the photo you can get a closer look.
