Enlisted

oh Jenn, what a beautiful page, and thank you to your son for enlisting in the Marines. I know sending him off to boot camp will be hard, but he will do well. Great scores on his test is awesome and glad he got his first choice. That is super! I love the way you used the template with all of the patriotic elements. I love the vintage retro patriotic papers and such and it really is truly a fabulous page. Thanks again to your son too! Love it!

This is just amazing!

Marine Corps? gulp. But when a child of ours finds what they want to do and gets the chance, it's a good thing! Great take on the dressed up template.

This brings tear to my eyes!! Great job mamma!!

Love the everything about your layout, the story, the elements, the papers!! Such a special layout!

This looks great!! I'm not a big clusterer myself, and I admire your take on this!!! First thing I did was de-clustering the template! :-D I love the big photo in black and white - it really makes the photo stand out despite of all the clustering!

How exciting! Love your mix of black and white and color photos. Super job with the template!

This is fantastic!

love this page - fantastic!

This is fantastic! You did amazing with your clustering and I love every little element on here! As for the journaling, I'm sure it's a mixed bag experience, nerves and you must be so proud too. Both for his courage to sign up and that he did so well on his exams and was able to select the job he wanted.

I love this page, even though it was a challenge for you it came out beautiful! I love the patriotic colors, theme and the photo!
