When DH graduated from grad school, we made a vacation out of it. We took a few days off & stayed in NYC (we lived in the ‘burbs at the time). Various family members came to town, including my parents – we had a wonderful time! This is the start of graduation day, the journaling on the top left side covers what we did before we went to the museum.

(Journaling continued from left side) “I had wanted to visit this world-famous wax museum for a while but had been daunted by the weekend tourist crowds; having my parents visit & taking a vacation day from work provided me w/ the ideal chance to finally go! It was great fun w/ Mom & Dad w/ tons of photo ops. Though Daddy's camera broke on the 2nd to the last floor. We re-did the photos on that floor & I left while they revisited the other floors. We had a blast!! Following that, back to the hotel to prepare for Greg's Grad…”

This LO comes chronologically before the “Greg's Graduation” LO earlier in my gallery.

All the paper I used, beside the background & what the text was printed on, were scraps. The matte behind the title is one of my bleach pen doodling test sheets for my “Toe Side Triumph” LO w/ bleach pen doodling (earlier in my gallery). (This piece was Ellie Pooh paper w/ bleach pen doodling, I thought it was neat how it bleached to that warm beige color but ultimately I liked the cool violet bleaching of the Bazzill I used better!). The sticker on the lower rt side was given to me by Karishma, a buddy from the Manhattan Scrapbooking Meetup.com group (she's here on sb.com too but forgot her screen name)… we both thought something should go in that corner & these stickers of hers were perfect…love it when that happens at crops!

Pardon the very imperfect stitching & inadvertently cut off scans.

I friggin love my adorable parents…

TFL! :)
