Back To School Style at the Creative Pixel

Carola with CT Designs here to talk about your Back To School Style. Again, this is one of those areas where I wish I was one way, but reality is altogether different.

My boys start school on Monday and last night I was out getting school supplies. Except stuff I could get over the internet - that's easy so I got those items right off. Binder bag for one, messenger bag for the other.

Procrastination might be a way of life for me in most areas, but when it comes to photographs and scrapping, not really. I usually get those first day pictures on the computer and scrapped before the first week is up. This year I think I'll take it easy with the photos - Ian and Alex are both at the age where mommy taking pictures will send them diving for cover! But, for those of you with younger kids, first day photos are a must and the Creative Pixel has the graphic packs and extra elements that you'll need. These notes should help and there are several kits in store that are 50% off - CTDesigns_E_BackToSchoolNotes                      

Layouts for back to school don't have to have photos from that first day - often times kids are nervous, especially if they have never been and all they want is a hug, not an impromptu photo session. So use a photo of your child from earlier in the week and build your back-to-school layout around that - the kids'll love you for it!

Don't forget to post your layouts at tCP so we can see & comment on them, too :)
