We were asked to use a sketch in a couple of different ways. I have done a layout and two cards. It is a very nice sketch and it will become a regular one for cards, I think.

| Here is the sketch |

As you can see by past posts, I am mainly a two page kinda gal. I just like the eye to take in all the same subject and design when looking through my albums. As you can see, I turned the sketch into a two page layout by flipping the photo box and stretching out the embellishments to cover both pages I admit, I had been putting off scrapping these photos because it was such a bittersweet moment. It was really the end of an era for our family. Both kids have been heavily involved in band from 6th to 12th grade and both were in marching band as Drum Majors. We marched in a local parade near the end of school and it was decided that my son would hand off the Drum Major job halfway through the parade route to the new Drum Major. I was in the front, carrying the banner, trying not to cry. My good friend took these photos for me. I was one proud Momma! |
