A Little Something That I've Been Working On

Lately, I've been somewhat of a pest to my son.... He is a Freshman in High School this year and perhaps, I am trying to relive my High School days through him. Anyway, I've been on his case BIG TIME about how important it is to be involved in things and to just enjoy this time of this life because it can be one of the best yet. Also, I'm stressing to him constantly with the "you gotta make sure you're making a huge effort so you can have a good college portfolio" lecture! It's driving him crazy but I know that for him to be able to attend college, he will have to strive to be able to earn Scholarships. Well, a thought came to my mind that if I crafted something that we could keep everything (his report cards; papers of the school clubs that he's in; school happenings; etc) all together, then maybe it might motivate him even more! It sure motivated me, lol..... let's just hope that it will have the same effect on him;)





Right now this is the back cover but I'm not crazy about it so I'm in the process of deciding how to change it.... I used Glitter Mist spray over a Glitter Mist Mask and althought I do like the way it looks, it made the cardstock bulk up and stick out from the binder and that's what I don't like about it.
