K-12 Layout


My middle son Tyler is graduating from high school this year.  I have been going through his photos to create a High School Graduation video.  I found a 5x7 of his kindergarten photo and knew I wanted to make this layout!!

I found this paper from a local scrapbook store (cut off the tag at a retreat so I don't know who made it) and loved it!


I opened my Gypsy and put two 5x7 rectangles on one layer to represent the pictures.

I welded "from" from Opposite Attracts sized to 1.24 inches.

I welded "to" also from Opposite Attracts sized to 1 inch.

K and 12 are from Nursery Rhyme and are sized to 2.06 inches.

I cut them all out of black cardstock.


I adhered "from" to the top of his Kindergarten photo.

The Kindergarten photo was trimmed in white fresh from the school packet.  I wanted to mimic that look with his senior picture, so I trimmed 1/8 inche off each edge and matted it with a 5x7 piece of white cardstock.



I adhered the K to 12 below the pictures.



I just love this!  I chose this senior picture because he is wearing a blue shirt that almost matches the background of the kindergarten picture!

Tyler sure has grown!

I am entering this in Link Up Tuesday at Sarah Hamer Designs!!
