SUPER BRO

Hello all! Today I'm sharing a layout I created using Fancy Pant's Design's Sidekick Optional Collection. This collection is perfect for scrapbooking those little boys in your family or your heros! There are so many cute embellishments in this collection. I adore them! As you can see, I used quite a few pieces on this layout...I just couldn't stop reaching for them!

*Disclaimer: Fancy Pants Designs gave me product to create this layout. The opinions I share are solely my own.

Here is a closer look at a few of the embellishments from this kit. That Super Bro die cut is the best!

I managed to add a few tags on this layout to help tell my story with a little bit of journaling.

To add dimension to the stars, I added puffy dots to the center of each star and then scattered a few here and there.

What do you think of this collection? You need it, right!? Go grab it now! I'll help you out...click here. :)

LIFE IS A JOURNEY

Hi friends and family. I'm sharing another layout I created using the Sunshine Sampler Kit from Clique International featuring lots of fresh patterns and colors to finish scrapbooking those summer memories! Pete, Edward and I decided to take the boat out for the day and spend the day together as a family...social distancing ourselves from everyone and we had the best time!

To create this layout, I selected 3 6x8 sheets of patterned paper and mounted them down on the cardstock at different angles. I trimmed the excess papers along the right side of the layout using scissors. Then, I matted the 4x6 photo using pink patterned paper.

To complete the layout, I added two pink strips around the photo to create a fun frame and then I added the embellishments using foam squares. 

As I was completing the layout adding the finishing touches, I remembered that I had a big number 3 die cut in my stash. I love how it looks in the center of the photo. It's perfect.

GONE FISHING

Hi all! This month, over at Scrap the Boys we are creating mixed media projects featuring our boys! I just received the TCW594 Mini Tribal Fish stencil from The Crafter's Workshop and couldn't wait to use it on this layout. I've been holding onto these photos of Edward from his trip out on the boat. 

Come join the Scrap the Boys Challenge FaceBook group for lots of fun and inspiration! 

I used a blending brush and ink to create the tribe of fish at the bottom of the layout and then I decided to go around the photos and the top of the layout so everything blended together nicely. I used stamps to stamp the title at the top and then colored in the letters using a lighter blue marker.

Doesn't the tribe of fish look so good at the bottom? I love it so much!

I used papers from Kesi'Art and Photo Play to mat the photos. Then I embellished the layout using  a few die cuts from Photo Play and Citrus Twist. The puffy hearts at the bottom are from Bella Blvd. I added a gem to the center of the blue heart to add dimension. 

Thanks so much for visiting today! Hope you're having a great week so far!
