First Day
Today’s page shows off some photos from the day my eldest granddaughter started school back in 2010. I found a sketch layout on Pinterest and used it as a starting point for my page. I cut down two Basic White 12″ x 12″ pages and attached them to Night of Navy 12″ x 12″ pages. I cut strips of the Country Woods 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper to attach to the pages. I attached all the photos to Basic White card and then to Night of Navy card. The photos on the right hand page are all attached to the same piece of Night of Navy card. I placed the designer series paper and the photos onto each page to work out where to stamp the image from the Of Art & Texture stamp set using Night of Navy ink. I stamped the greetings from the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set onto Basic White card using Night of Navy ink.

The greetings were cut out using one of the Greetings of the Season Dies. Once the stamping and die cutting was done, I attached the Designer Series Paper strips across the middle of each page. On the left hand page, I attached the large photo and tucked the greeting panel underneath the right hand side. I did add the date using one of the long retired Jounaling Pens. I cut the title from Night of Navy card using the Alphabet A La Mode Dies and attached it below the photo. On the right hand page I attached the photos and again tucked the greeting underneath the right hand side. I stamped “so proud of you” from the So Sincere stamp set onto Basic White card using Night of Navy ink. I cut out the greeting using the retired Stitched Stars Dies and attached it to a Night of Navy star cut using the same dies. The star is attached to the centre of the photos.

I have been working hard to scrap as many photos as I can because I lost so many when an external hard drive died. I hope that you have all your photos stored safely or that you are creating pages to remember happy times.
Bye for now,
Kris
