Good Morning! I love fall. I love Back to School, crisp fall evenings and bright sunny days. Even though Tuesday was a rainy day here, I managed to get some really cute photos of my kids before they left for school.
I also love to get those school photos scrapped as quickly as possible. Keeps me current in this small small way! Adriane is going into grade 4..whoa! Can you believe how grown up she is?
I used Queen & Co. most recent Disney paper line and a sketch by my fellow TSF DT Jayne Morgan. (Check our her awesome sketch here). Both allowed me to create a Back to School design and match her grown up look and style. The patterns were funky and the arrows especially reflected "education" to me; lots of ideas moving in a new direction ..onwards and upwards! You know I always talk about being meaningful in my scrappy choices and with that in mind, I added a few elements of the number 4 to reflect her grade: four pins, four buttons and lots of spare 4's.
I also used my Silhouette to cut the title. The font is LD Franks Friends in differing sizes. My friends over at Two Scrapbook Friends blog are sharing a few more back to school ideas. I hope you'll head over and check it out!
Until next time, keep doing what you love
