"First Day of School" Layout

Yep - my two grandsons started pre-kindergarden this year! And as you can tell by the photo they were super excited. Don't you wish the excitement would last another 12 years? Maybe when they get "senior-itis" I can show them this layout and rekindle it? ...or not.

I made the large flower by using Tim Holtz Tattered Florals Sizzix die. The paper is from an old book I bought at The Ole' Mill Store in Fisher, LA. If you are ever in central Louisiana you need to stop by this fun antique store. It's huge and has tons and tons of antique items!

Here is a close-up of the flower.  I inked the edges with brown ink, crinkled the petals a little bit then just stacked them up.

Thanks for stopping by my blog!
