More Boys creations to share ...

Wonderful boys inspiration from the DT to share with you this weekend

First up

From Taryn with ....

Just Chillin

For this layout, I have used October Afternoon Thrift
Shop Great Find and Last One papers, together with a scrapware
sign, black heat set studs, Jenni Bowlin Chalkboard Alphas and American Craft foam alphas, brown grosgrain stitched ribbon, and Teresa Collins Chic Bebe Boy Notes paper.

Do you like my mini banner??

I just hand cut the little pieces of paper, and then curled them up and inked the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. The heat set studs set it off beautifully, and how cute is the little boy cap charm at the end?

My Guys ...

I love this photo of my husband and son together. I took this photo on Mothers Day 2007 with my new camera and it is still one of my faves.

For this layout I used the fantastic new Fancy Pants paper range Fancy Pants Like Father Like Son, and the co-ordinating element stickers.

The background is the Be Strong paper, and I have layered this with a piece of the reverse side of this paper as well, and a piece of the reverse side of Little Tike.

I machine stitched around all the pieces of pattern paper, as well as the background paper to enhance to printed stitch pattern in the papers.

I added layers of stickers from the element stickers, which I mounted onto cardstock, cut around and layered with foam tape.

Materials Used:

Pattern Papers: Fancy Pants Like Father Like Son - Be Strong paper (I used 2 pieces), Little Tike

Titles - Sassafras Lass Cherry Glitter alpha, Jenni Bowlin Studio vintage navy circle stickers

Embellishments - Fancy Pants Like Father Like Son element stickers

Carnival ...

Carrying on with the boys at play theme this month, I captured my little one at the school carnival last week! I love this school event and of course LOVE taking multiple photos!!!

This was the team leader ball event, note the red hair especially for the day!! It was a beautiful day, windy, but sunny and warm with blue skies! So seeing as I have a huge love of clouds, I took a picture of them and added it to my layout.

Using more of the Fancy Pants Like Father Like Son papers mixed with a leftover piece of October Afternoon Fly a Kite Fireflies and some cardinal core dinations and olive core dinations I came up with this.

After cutting out the photos I wanted to use I set about making a ‘jigsaw’ with my papers and laid them on the FP Stud Muffin paper.

When I was happy with the layout I paper pierced some holes and used some rub on stitching, but this could have been done using a gel pen or real stitching.

The title is Thickers Daiquiri and Jenni Bowlin Tiny Circle Alphas in Black & Red.

I’ve then embellished with a my2angels House Charm, a Red Mulberry Flower and Plaid Brad. The bee and heart are handmade embellies from my stash, but any button shape would work here and so would a my2angels bee charm

Have a fantastic weekend everyone
I am off to get my DS from Camp - yah - its been a long week but oh so quiet with less fights to referee LOL!
