Daring You To Scrap April Challenge

YAY! I finally have a boy layout done. It feels like it has been aggggeeeessss. Master 14 now flat out refuses to have his photo taken (despite the promise of photoshopping any pimples). He has also developed this innate sixth sense for when a camera is about to be produced and vanishes no where to be found which has also ruled out any 'on the sly' impromptu shots too. However, throw his dad's dog Rolly into the the frame and magic, forgotten all about the camera! So this layout is for the April sketch challenge at Daring You To Scrap. Bit of a fun sketch that is a little bit out of the box which I loved!






Paper: MME Miss Caroline & On The Bright Side, Echo Park This & That. Other: Twine, Upholstery Tacks, Mini Pegs, Acrylic Paint, Background Stamp, Washi Tape, Carol-Lee Alphas, Echo Park Stickers, Paper & Bulldog Clips, Tim Holtz Mini Staples. Rivets.

Hope everyone has an awesome weekend! TFL xox

  7. I have the reverse [problem - no girl pages as my 15yo girly also is well aware of when the camera is around. I am (very) occassionally given permission to scrap some of her photos from facebook...

    Love this by the way...

  9. These photo/banner sketches are really popular right now- and they totally intimidate me- but you've done something truly amazing with it!!! I love that you've used the MME whitewashed paper for your background with the hints of black ink and those colors against it- just awesome.
    I'm dreading the teen years and the anit-photo stage....I remember what that was like! But you've got some great ones here. Well done Mom!!

  13. Oh I love it. I love the sketch (and hope to give it a go if I can), I love the paper (just happened to purchase some myself and cannot wait to use it) and love those pics. Amazing how an animal can make us forget about what else is around us....the best medicine for anybody.
    Fabulous colors and I do like seeing a real boy page too. Great work.
