First Day of First Grade Layout

Here is the last layout from Paige's Pages 14 over at Big Picture Classes! All about 'dem stars :) For this layout I started by gathering all of the papers with stars from my Turn the Page collection. I fussy cut ALL of them! I ended up only using the ones from the blue background paper, but I know I will use all the colorful stars on a future project. Then, instead of just adhering the stars as is, I got a little crazy and embellished them with hand stitching! This is definitely a skippable step, but I always love adding a little somethin’ extra for a handmade touch!

 Watch and see exactly how this page came together in a start-to-finish process video over in the classroom!
