Neon Man Card - Scrap the Boys

Hey friends!

Today I'm bringing you a card I did using the mood board at Scrap the Boys. My son also wanted to create a card using the mood board! He kept gasping and giggling as he was creating it, enjoying how it was coming out. It was adorable!

We didn't have exactly the right colors for the mood board in paper, so we inked ups some white cardstock, and it worked perfectly!

We were definitely inspired by the leaves and the bright blues and green. The tropical feel was great too.

Heath loved creating the die cuts with my Big Shot.

I'm putting sequins on a card, I don't care who ya are.

I think I will definnitely be using this color pallette again for a scrapbook page - I love it!

Sleep Tight - a Scrap the Boys challenge

Hey friends!

I'm here today with a layout I created with a fun challenge from Scrap the Boys. What a great blog, and I can't believe I have not participated before.

This layout was based upon a fun sketch from Laura Whitaker:

I had these three sweet photos of my boy with his 4th birthday gift of a big boy bed, and they were perfect!

I used these fun eyelashes from the new Ink Road Stamps Iconic collection instead of E's in the title! I love they look like asleep eyes, and let me tell you - this boy has lashes for day! So unfair lol.

These transparent ephemera pieces from Shimelle were perfect for a layout about bedtime! It is hard to photograph a bit - it says "to the Moon & Back."

I also got these great WRMK dies at Tuesday Morning that were perfect with my star theme!

I also picked up this dot textured Kraft and LOVE it! 

I sewed a circle around my star background staying true to the sketch and I love how that turned out as well.

Only a litte journaling was necessary to tell this story, and accenting with acrylic stars brought the theme together again.

Aww that sweet sleepy baby face is already so much bigger!

I loved working with the Scrap the Boys challenge. I'll definitely be coming back again.
