MWM Carnation #8 & Scrap Our Stash Challenge #32

A month long hiatus is much better than a 2 year one! My in-laws came for a visit and they watched the kids while hubby and I took our first solo vacation since becoming parents. That on top of the craziness of life slowed me down a bit this month. However, this weekend while the kids were at the park with hubs I got to scrap! I went a little crazy on this one with embellishments from like 10 different companies and lines. I have missed all my paper goodness!

I combined the sketch provided by Scrapbooksteals.com Mid-Week Mojo Carnation #8 and the Scrap Our Stash Challenge #32 to create a back to school layout. I think my favorite part of this entire page is the paper scrap that I have been holding on to for years that says "Be wild and be free. Be who you want to be". Sending my babies off to school is hard but the people they will become because I let them go will be incredible.


 After I took the above photo I realized I forgot to add "BE" to the phrase. I liked the lighting better on the full page photo so I just added this one to show what the title actually looks like.
