Oh Boy!

There are so many fabulous scrapbooking paper lines out there for boys these days.  I remember when I first started back in the early 90's. There wasn't much product especially masculine stuff appropriate for boys. I recently found this fun line from WRMK It has a retro feel with rocket ships, gears, cars and helicopters and nice gold foil detail.  Of course I had to turn it into another one of my favorite paper bag minis.  Check it out!

Summer Time Is Here!

Today is officially the last day of school which means the first day of Summer for us! I've been working on some more paper bag mini albums (I just love making these) and here is one I just finished, just in time for....well SUMMER

This mini was made the same way as my Boy's Life, so it has lots of space for pictures and lots of pull out tags.  I had fun making the stamped flower embellishments, coloring them with copic markers and twinkle h2o paints.  I also hand painted the die cut flourishes to coordinate with the background paper. The rest of the stickers are dimensional chipboard from K and Co. Tell me what you think.

Some Scrapping for me!

This week I decided to do a little scrapping for myself for a change
here's a little (12x12) page I did with photos from this past March.
We had a wonderfully cool (for Florida) winter and it was such a nice time to spend outside.
We went to a beautiful nature preserve in Boynton Beach called Green Cay
We saw lots of different kinds of birds and there were turtles and alligators, frogs and even a few little furry rabbits.  Unfortunately I didn't bring my big zoom lens so the photos weren't the best.  I cropped and printed them to 2.5 inches to highlight some of the creatures we saw.  I was able to fit 9 photos onto one page and still have room for embellishments!  I hand cut the clouds and distressed them with antique linen distress ink.  The flowers are prima and the leaves were cut with sizzix.
