Here’s Matthew up close and personal. 😀 These were taken when he was just 2 years old. This kiddo loves the camera (unlike Christian…I’m still trying to get shots of him where he isn’t staring at me like I’m an alien!).

I created this layout based on the 3.03 sketch provided on Sketchy Thursdays for their challenge. Everything you see, except the brown alphas and brown cardstock I used to mat the photos, is from Bo Bunny’s gorgeous Garbielle line. I love this beautiful, detailed line and enjoyed further challenging myself to use what seems at first to be a “girly” range on a boy page. This has been a goal of mine since 95% of my crafty goodies tend to be girly, but I have 4 boys and 1 girl! Here’s what I came up with:

Materials:

Bo Bunny Gabrielle 12×12 papers
American Crafts Brown cardstock
BB Gabrielle stickers
BB Pet Shop sticker alphas
BB Gabrielle “True Friend” cardstock stickers
BB Gabrielle brad
BB Gabrielle chipboard

Adhesives:

Glue Arts Glue Glider Pro PermaTac

Little Builder – Scrap Whispers challenge entry

I created this layout for Challenge 88 on the Scrap Whispers site. It is a “Forgotten Treasures” challenge. Here’s what it says on the post: “This week is all about that forgotten stash you have hidden in the bottom of a dark drawer. Drag out something you’ve had for ages and just not managed to use despite maybe staring at it on a few occasions. Use it! Could be weird coloured ribbon, enormous stickers, ugly patterned die-cuts. Alter it if you like, just use it!”

Digging through my stash, I found this Creative Imaginations paper. I have no idea when it is from. All I know is that when I first started scrapping, I bought a huge lot of paper from someone who was getting rid of their stash since they were no longer into papercrafting. I figured it would be perfect for this challenge!

Here’s what I did with it:

Materials:

Creative Imaginations Marah Johnson paper
American Crafts green cardstock
Gold foil doily
Webster’s Pages Storytellers alphas
Sakura brush tip marker

Adhesive:

Glue Arts Glue Glider Pro PermaTac
