Linked by love
 


For this lovely photo of my two beautiful granddaughters, I have chosen a paper from BoBunny Madeline range.  I've used gesso to tone part of the pattern down, added a paper doyley sprayed with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, Kaiser Kraft 'Flutter' template and texture paste for the butterflys,  Petaloo flowers and Kaiser mini blooms, a transparency over the photo, and an oval frame embossed with whispers silver argent, a stick pin, lattice cut using a Tim Holtz die, scrolls cut with Paper Artist die, Karen Foster Sparkle burst brad, and rub on title.  Thanks for looking.

Brothers three
 

All papers come from the MME Boy Crazy range and as the name suggests, perfect for boy layouts.  Also used Gelato Red Cherry with a template around edges and in background, random strips of washi tape and fussy cut robots and stars from the paper range, some 'critters' buttons .  Not altogether happy with the dark cardstock I've chosen.  Thanks for looking.
 
 
Bubble fun
 

Papers used are from an Authentique paper pack.  Background I've used Tim Holtz stencil and Viva Modellier-Creme texture paste.  I've also used a Memory Box die cut for the 'bubbles'.   I really liked the colour palette and sketch.   Thanks for looking.
 
 
100% pure boy
 
 
I have used a variety of papers, gold ric rac, the blue ric rac has a gold thread through it, and also a strip of gold punched foil.  In the background I've used a variety of stamps and embossed them with Whisper metallic embossing powder.  Thanks for looking

My family
 

I have scraplifted this page from one of  my friend Fi's pages.   It is not as detailed as her page, but the basics are there.  I've used a TCW stencil  in the background,  Basic Grey for the photo mat. Circle is cut from Teresa Collins Summer Stories range.  Prima flowers, and fussy cut flowers from Basic Grey paper and white flowers are cut from paper that has been embossed with an embossing folder.  Frame is hand cut, and I've also used a transparency over the photo.  Bird cage is stamped, and leaves cut with Memory Box die cut.  Photo of myself and siblings at a family reunion.

Thanks for looking

Prima Bedtime Story Collection 'Mother Goose' paper for the background, and figures cut from 'Bedtime Story'.  I've hand stitched the circles, and the 'moon' circle is cut using a Craftables die.  I've used Gelato 'Red cherry' to do the crossed vertical/horizontal lines.  The stars are cut from MME Boy Crazy range and edged with Kindyglitz.  The small stars are also from the Prima Bedtime Story range.
