Lovely bold colours. Great ribbon treatment. You get over the teary eyes when you see them achieving what they want for their lives. Then eventually off they go to their own place and you get your choice of rooms for your craft studio!

Wonderful colors and layout and great use of the ribbon!
Don't cry when your youngest goes to kindergarten, look at it as a second Mother's Day and celebrate!

I love your color combo and your layout. It's very cheerful, which was your goal.
