Sketches by Tamara Guest Designer - All Boy

I was asked to be a guest designer at Sketches! by Tamara this week - how exciting!!!   The second Tuesday of the month is always a recipe challenge and mine was to use blue (easy), buttons, and brads.  The blue made me think of little boys, and I just got the most precious picture of my sweet little nephew Bo.  Bo is All Boy- and there's my theme.

I used New Arrival and Everyday Paperdolls for the little vehicles on this layout.   The sketch was a card sketch from Totally Papercrafts, but it translated very well into a layout.  The paper is from Oriental Trading.  Buttons and brads added the details to the little vehicles.  The title is painted chipboard.

Hey World!




Sketch time at Practical Scrappers and there is a fantastic one there from our very own Heidi!   Loved the sketch and immediately thought of this crazy picture of Craig.  And what better to use on a layout of a guy than The Dude collection from Prima.  I have bought every pack of this paper I can find....if I ever run out, I don't know what I will do.  The paper does the work for you.  Cut out some embellishments from the paper, added some Aster flowers from Walk In My Garden, added a big oval frame, entwined with embroidery floss, and a few brads, buttons, and a star punch.  The ribbon is from the Dude collection, a great secret sister surprise (How did she know how much I loved this set?!)  Title is American Crafts Remarks stickers.
