First Day Of Kindergarten

Today I have a layout of my youngest daughter on her first day of Kindergarten. She was so excited and proud to be going to school like her big sister. Brings back lots of good memories!!

I am entering it in the challenge at Whimsical Wednesday! The challenge this week is to scrap some school memories with a twist that you must include a chipboard element.



I used a chipboard apple from American Crafts. The other apple I cut from the lace paper and backed with patterned paper.


Supplies used: cardstock - red; patterned paper - binder - SEI; classroom stripe - Dasiy D's, Chalkboard - Karen Foster, Apples Lucky lace cardstock - KI Memories; Chalkboard Alpha Black - Jenni Bowlin; School Daze cardstock stickers - Bo Bunny; journaling spot - Jenni Bowlin; chipboard apple - American Crafts

    Such a great layout Esther. Like how the red in the embellie lifts the red in the border. Such a cute photo and memory too. Thanks for playing along with us at Whimsical Wednesday. x
