I've been working on my daughter's school album this week, but since I don't have any more photos printed for her, I switched to my son's album. I'm starting his 5th grade photos, so almost done with elementary school. He's 20 now, so I am a little behind - LOL! Here was first day of school. I had fun making the little composition notebook with his name on it and framing the piece of cork paper with woodgrain paper to create the bulletin board with my first day of school letter on it. I also tried out an ink splat stencil that I had never used before, and I love the slightly messy look it adds to the page, perfect for my ADHD kiddo.

Pattern: EMS Sketch Challenge #3 (I'm trying to use it four times this month for a challenge over at Scrapbook.com, so you will probably see this sketch again!)
Challenges: Colorful Options - I don't have any Halloween photos to scrap for the orange and black option, so I went with the rainbow of colors instead; Inkspirational #353 Seeing Stars - a star border plus lots of little stars scattered around; Stencil Fun - pulled out a new ink splat stencil to add some messiness to the layout.
