LO's with kids school work

[kristijoy]

I would like to create a layout (or several) showcasing some of my son's school work. He's in kindergarten and I would like to capture how he writes his name, the drawings he's done in school.

Anyone done LO's with scanned images of your kids work? Care to share?? I need a little inspiration!

I wrote a blog post about scrapping school memorabilia:

I have scanned most of my sons pictures, art, and school work - all are included in our yearly photo books. I still have kept the originals (most) - for now - but one day - if they disappear I will have them forever in my books!

Great LOs! I have so much artwork and schoolwork waiting to be scrapped. Here are a few that I've done so far, and I'll be watching this thread for more ideas.

This one is a Mother's Day LO, but my kids made the presents at school.

Absolutely love that first one Jacinda, my little Picasso's art is usually scanned and sits on my computer awhile before I'm inspired, feeling a lift coming on ;)

I've only done one so far and that was a while back...

Wow Jacinda - love the idea of putting each piece of art in a frame on that layout! I haven't done any like this I don't think, though I did type up a poem my son did on a layout once.

I just did another school layout this week. Bigger views of each page in the gallery:
