Sofia's Scrapbook Series: First Day of School Layout

Hello Scrappers!  Today I am sharing a First Day of School scrapbook layout. The more time I invest in scrapbooking, the more I am getting the hang of it. Although I am getting ahead of myself by creating my daughter a First Day of School page, it is the theme this week over at A Jillian Vance Design, and I know that when the time comes, I will be so grateful that it is ready to go. All I have to do is add photos and some journaling! This layout took me FOREVER to do! I did a lot of embellishing and faux stitching. Hope you enjoy, let me know what you think!
