Happy Boys

Hi all, I finally received the order of the project life  6x8 inserts so I made my layout for the guy's 'Back in time'  album.  I kept the layout pretty simple as it will be the first page in the album.

I covered the chipboard letters with a piece of the pattern paper then tied some embroidery floss to the letter "o" and the button.

 

I then decided to use the same pictures and add a similar layout to my album. I used my Silhouette to cut the "happy" and did not cover my chipboard pieces as they were in a similar color to the  background paper.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Waiting for the ferry

I'm starting of with a couple of pages for the guys using my Counterfeit Kit called "Back In Time" Project Life Album.  The notes from Mom and Dad's album were sometime in 1991.

 

I used the Cricut to cut the "Ferry" out of the Going Places cartridge.  I know it's not a real ferry but it was the closest, I added a couple of heart rhinestones to the windows as both Dale and I used to ride them to work. I didn't have enough of the capital R's so I used two small ones instead.

 I used the D'Vine Swirl embossing folder on all of the red cardstock. I added the stamped birdies as they reminded me of the sea gulls.

The above picture shows the layout in the sheet protectors. The journaling reads: It was always an adventure waiting for the ferry. Running on the beach, chasing sea gulls, picking up sea glass, rocks and sea shells.

Thanks for stopping by.
