After the kids went to bed tonight, I was finally able to find some time to scrapbook. I used this week’s Tuesday Template from ScrapMatters to get me started and I couldn’t stop until the page was finished. It all came together very nicely. That is after a found the picture I wanted to use….that took a while.

Journaling: Will adores Elmo. It comes as no surprise that he was thrilled with his new Elmo backpack. It does come as a surprise that he looks like such a big boy wearing it.
I really worked on the technique of making the string look like it was really strung to the fastener. It always takes me a while to figure that out. The goal is for it to look as “real” as possible.
