This post is all about the Scrap the Boys Challenge Blog that I run. This challenge blog is for those scrapbookers whose main arty cause is to document their boys.

With Scrap the Boys you can join like minded girls and boys who can inspire and create while being in the draw to win some cool prizes.

So Here is THIS months Sketch. Click here to go back to the post

Cedar Lane Available at Shop and Crop NOW

Hi There Scrapbookers,

Today I am going to show you the latest that has arrived and available to purchase at Shop and Crop Scrapbooking. Its Pink Paislee's Cedar Lane collection.

This collection is so pretty. So much glitter I dont know what to do with myself. Here is one layout #Bestie Love.

 Materials used- Cedar Lane Pink Paislee, Flutterby design flair, thread and Gelatos.

 I did do a bit of a fussy cut around the cardstock to get some flowers out.

 You can see the puffy stickers and see through ephemera are soooo cute

 Have a close look at those tags. They are made with a calico it provides such a lovely dimension to the page

 LOOK at those glitter Thickers. I never get much of an opportunity to play with glitters. Just too much cuteness

Well I hope you loved a close up view of the fun you could have with Pink Paislee. Jump online to shop now before HQ runs out.

Boy EveryDay

Hello Scrappy guys and girls,
Amy here its almost summer here, hot as a frog on a hot tin roof it is.

Let me tell you a some new gossip.

Number One is I have created a FB page so please send some love by liking https://www.facebook.com/amysmalldesigns/?ref=hl

and TWO is my layout called Boy Everyday. I would like to show you how you can use a cutfile to soften a boy layout. I am all about my boys as you can see and I have used the PCW cutfile Doily and Rose Set.

You can see by layering the doily behind a boy collection like this one from Cocoa Vanilla Studio you can break up the harsh lines and provide more dimension to your page

Materials used - Papercraftingworld.com cutfiles, cocoa vanilla studio collection, flutterby flairs and wood veneer, studio calico stickers, embossing powder white,

 

 I hope this layout has inspired you to scrap your boys more often. They do such wonderful funny things that need to be documented. My challenge blog Scrap the Boys can give you a little more inspiration each month.

Scrap the Boys November Layout

Hi Scrap Peeps,

I love these photos, not because the photos are particularly aesthetic. But it tells important an story. My littlest man loves his Uncle and he LOVES food. My uncle and Aunt have a very special part of my heart and any photos I have of them mean so much to me. Before we moved for the fiance's job we would lunch EVERY Tuesday at a locally owned cafe. So when this challenge came up I had to use this couple of photos.

I used the last of my Echo Park Jack and Jill Collection, A Studio Cameo Cutfile, and American Crafts Thickers,

There are some great prizes to win over at Scrap the Boys. Jump over to enter this month.

Stay Scrappy,
