Enjoy the Journey

I made this layout of my son heading to kindergarten for the first time this year. Such a big step in his (and my) life and one that will set the stage for many more milestones to come.

I received my HUGE package of Graphic 45 papers yesterday (5 paper pads to be exact) so I was obviously dying to dig in!!

Used a heap of Transatlantique papers for this layout: Bon Voyage, Paris Post, Meet Me in St. Loius, Souvenir Stripe and a generous helping of their gorgeous tags.

These papers are just so unbelievably beautiful on their own - not much need to embellish with additional items. I did use a crochet doily to frame one of the tags and featured a part of their patterned paper, which I cut out, on this metal charm. Otherwise, its all paper lovin' baby!!

Thanks for popping by! Hope you enjoy the rest of your day!

I LOVE G45. And it need so little to make it work!
Great job. Transatlantic is still one of my favorites, too.
