It's Okay To Put Flowers...............


On a boy's layout! This is more beautiful paper from the My Little Yellow Bicycle line. Here
Vellum is circle cut- then paper pierced around the edge. Also adhered with pop-dots.



This was a cute paper kit that Deb gave me by Pebbles Inc. I added the Bazill flowers that I stitched around on the machine. The HUGE turtle is cut out by hand- with pop dots added.















I love the look of flowers. It is natural for me to want to put them on every page I create. I also have lots of friends that just have boys that scrapbook. So this is a reminder & a few examples of what I mean. Cut out a non- girlie flower and add stickles to it. Green or blue looks good. Stitch around a cut out flower. Either with machine or by hand. Use coordinating thread. Add it to your next BOY layout. It will look great- trust me!

Love the layouts and the flowers with pics of the boys. I too suffer from all boy pics and wanting to use girlie stuff! I would post more layouts if i could ever get a decent picture. Any tips ??

Why do I blog?

I have never been one to keep a journal. I have never been able to write in a diary for more than a week! I have countless scrapbooks that still need to be journaled. I do this in hopes of becoming a better journalist. I do this to document everyday life. I do this so I don't have to scrapbook EVERY picture! I do this for me, our friends and family, & mostly the kids. One day they will have it all - because I took the time to document all the little things that REALLY do matter. Everyday life....all the little moments you & I can't remember because the memories are long gone.......
