Boys Rule Scrapbook Kits: Guest Designer - February 1st sketch

Hello, everyone! Back again to show you another layout I recently designed using the January/February 2015 Boys Rule Scrapbook Kit. It's truly oh, so perfect for my layouts of my son, Louis-Olivier. This kit is sorta geared for winter layouts, but I've been scrapping a storm about our Summer vacation in 2011, so it works for everything! This time around, I used Laura Whitaker's Boys Rule February 1st sketch:

And here is what I designed:

Once again, I used tons of the kits on this one - We Are Memory Keepers and Bo Bunny patterned papers, Pink Paislee stars, Carta Bella arrow stickers, American Crafts and Authentique alphas, and baker's twine. The background is another piece of Creative Memories patterned paper (I know, eh?). I also added some splats of Tattered Angels Glimmer Glaze and a few American Crafts brads and cork stars. The journalling is written on a few strips of Stampin' Up cardstock. And those stitched circles? Yes, they are hand-stitched (I am THAT crazy!) using a Bazzill Basics stitching template and three colours of DMC floss.

My scrappy cave is calling... I think I'll go make another layout using this great kit! ;)

Happy scrapping!
