Graduation Layout!

Hello Bleeps!

Today's project is a digital scrapbook layout for Late Night Stampers. I made a simple graduation layout of my son (it took  me about 10 minutes to make, using MDS from Stampin' up!!!!), he will be graduating in two weeks! Oh, where oh, where does the time go?!?!?!
School is out now, so I officially have a HS graduate, a 8th grader, 5th grader and the twins are 3rd graders (and my step daughter Gabby will be in 7th grade...I think, or maybe it is 8th....not sure!!!)......I wish I could pause life sometimes.....my babies are getting bigger and I don't like it one bit!!!(((sniff)))!!!
Anyways, I hope you like the layout...I was going for kinda a grunge look, LOL!!!
