Jordan's High School Scrap Book "Honors Orchestra"

Hello! Today I have another scrap book page that my daughter Ashley did for my son's high school scrapbook. This page shows a major achievement in my son's life: getting into the Wisconsin State Honors Orchestra. In our state, every year auditions are held for exemplary high school musicians to try out to be a part of this orchestra. Over 2,500 students try out for only a hand full of openings. There were only 5 percussionists chosen for the orchestra, and my son was one of the five. Talk about competition! The kids spend about 4 days in Green Bay during the summer practising very difficult music, then in October they meet again in Madison to perform a concert in a majestic auditorium for all the state music teachers and the general public.

Here is the completed page.

Here is a close up of the title. That is ribbon on the left side. Musical designer paper was used for the background.

These images are retired Stampin Up! Stamps.



And this is Jordan at the end of the concert annoyed with his mother's constant picture taking. LOL!




Have a great day! Amy
