Scrap The Boys: I Love You to the Moon and Further

 Hello and welcome! Today is the start of a new challenge at Scrap The Boys!!

Without further ado, here it is! The design team really went all out and has incredible diversity of pages for this challenge. Hope you find inspiration!

I got the starburst freebie die cut from Paper Issues. I will admit, this did not quite turn out the way I wanted, plus the photo of the page is not helping. It seems I'm on the down low with taking good shots these days with trying to learn to use a new lens.

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY TODAY!

Scrap The Boys: Love You So Much

Hello! It's the first of the month which means it is time for a new challenge at Scrap The Boys!!!

I went with the white, pink, and blue for a layout about my son on a swing. He had the best toothless smile only a mother can love!!!! (Hint: I have another photo of him missing so many teeth it's hilarious.)

Making a page about my son in his younger days means I get to reach for bright colors! Woo hoo! And I'm rolling in bright colors and paper packs by Pretty Little Studio.

Hope you like my page and thanks for stopping by today!!!

--Pink Fresh - Dream On - (background border)

--AC pink and white cardstock

Scrap The Boys: Play in the Water

Today starts a new challenge for Scrap the Boys!

I've been in a summer mood lately and decided to scrap this gem tucked away in my photos. When it comes to scrapping rowdy boys, I like to either take the "loud and bold" approach or the mixed media "messy and masculine" approach.

I decided to play with this fun die cut provided by Paper Issues! I did add journaling along the bottom of the layout, but my logo is covering it up because I wrote names.

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Paper:
Bella Blvd: Sand&Surf
Pebbles: Fun in the Sun
Echo Park: Summer Bliss

Embellishments:
Silhouette Cameo - die cut design and title from Paper Issues

The Boo Crew

Hi there!! Today I'm playing along with the Tic Tac Toe challenge at Scrap Our Stash. I followed the diagonal line including orange, pumpkin and die cut.

My husband and son dressed up as Marty McFly and Doc last year for Halloween. They even made the Hover Board themselves!! Well, at least Daddy did most of the work anyway. They were the hit of the neighborhood, as all the adults immediately knew who they were.

The pumpkin and title are freebies from Paper Issues. They really do have some wonderful free files on their site.

Without further ado, here it is. Thanks for stopping by today!!

Supplies:

Bella Blvd: Spooktacular paper line and stickers

Paper Issues free file

Sequins

Silhouette Cameo

Studio Challenges: Dream

Today's challenge over at Studio Challenges is to scrap lift a fellow team member.

I chose Rachel's layout from June 6th. We both have the same free file from Paper Issues

and I have been wanting to play with it for a while.

Several years ago we had family pictures done and I have yet to scrap

about them. I have been tackling those pictures recently and am loving 

the results!!

Thanks for stopping by today!

I have been playing a lot lately with making layouts that are not made with "squares".
All my cards are square, but I am loving getting away from it for my layouts.

Studio Challenge: Sun Sand & Sea

Hello there! Today I'm sharing with you my layout with newest Studio Challenges this week - a color palette! This could easily be Spring or Summer colors.

I had a lot of fun making this particular layout. I actually made it on NSD which had me thinking about my particular style a lot. I love using my Silhouette Cameo and I love stitching. Lately I've been really enjoying cutting background mats for my layouts. They come together like puzzle pieces and look so striking, at least I think so.

Thanks for stopping by today!!
