The collection I used was Be Different by Fancy Pants. It was perfect for the sketch and the subject of my photos. This was our son, and my nephew, at my aunts surprise wedding last June. She told us it was a retirement party, but some of us guessed better ๐ The journalling is hidden on the tab that says cousins…pull it up and voila!

1st Day Of Pre-School Layout
Hi everyone! Our son was so excited to start Pre-K this year, and when I saw how the pictures came out I had to scrap them right away.
I used the October sketch from DCWV as my starting point. Both of my background papers come from a DCWV stack. They don’t make the green paper anymore, and this was my last piece. It’s my favorite green ever!
The patterned paper stars are cut with dies. The solid stars are from the Stamps of Life All 4 Stars set. The wood veneer stars, and the green solid star, are from Studio Calico.
I used stars and space paper because to us our son is a star and out of this world…corny…I know!
The awesome title comes from Paper Wizard. It’s four different layers and gives great depth to the layout. If you haven’t used any of their die cuts yet…you have to check them out!
I hope you’ve enjoyed my layout and will take a look at the vendor I used and the challenges I entered. Until next time…Keep Scrapping!

All Boy Card
Hey Everyone – I’m back two days in a row! This morning my father and I were taking my son somewhere special so I didn’t have to leave as early as normal, and I decided to make a quick card for the Sketch~n~Scarp card challenge, the Sister Act Card Challenge “Anything Goes”, and the Craft Your Passion Boys challenge. Can you tell I love the Sketch~N~Scrap sketches – they always challenge me to use what I have!
I used one of my favorite collections from Echo Park – All Abut A Boy. I cut the banners and arrow by hand, and then used an embossing folder for the background. The dots are pearl pens…another favorite product of mine.
I’ve been on such a roll lately that I’m wondering when the mojo is going to end ๐ Until next time – keep scrapping!
