Awww. The joys of parenting.
One such joy is observing your children in the wild--for good or ill--and sometimes being a helpless spectator to their behavior. We've been seeing a lot of this lately with our 6 year old. He's discovering himself and it's not all pretty (or handsome in his case).
I wanted to document his "angry" behavior during his Kindergarten graduation ceremony. Although I was embarrassed by it at the time, I think we can both (at least I can) laugh about it now. I think it's important to document the good with the bad as all things add to our creation.
For this layout I stamped the American Crafts grid stamp inside a pattern paper covered Fancy Pants chipboard frame. They fit perfectly together!!
I used one side of the layout for a very bold title as I really wanted to balance out the long journaling on the right side of the layout--it was a rather long story to tell.
I added a bunch of 2" tall photos to both sides of the layout and then added some more fun embellishments. (One must have item? The office punch by Martha Stewart. I use it ALL the time!!)
