Since yesterday was my son’s last day in the Marines, it seems only fitting that today I share with you the last of the bootcamp scrapbook layouts.

Doncha just love that bottom left pic with my younger son?  “Yes, I’m in the photo, but I don’t know those people.”  He was 16 at the time and SO acting his age.  ===sigh===

When my husband and I were in DC a couple of years before this some how we missed seeing the actual Iwo Jima Memorial sculpture.  We were glad to get the opportunity to see Parris Island’s (smaller) replica.

There’s lots of stamping and inking on these papers to grunge them up.  The pocket on the right page is just a square of cardstock with pop dots on three sides.  The title on the left side is made up of grungy alpha stickers over vellum.  The helmet and dog tags are Jolee’s stickers.

  1. Just looking at it raises a lump in your throat, doesn’t it? God bless America. We sure do need it.
