SCRAP THE BOYS, SCRAP THE GIRLS Feb..

A warm hello to you!  thanks for coming by..  We seem to be in the middle of a long heat wave here, I hope the weather is more pleasant wherever you are!

I have two layouts to put up today for two fabulous challenges.

The challenge for SCRAP THE BOYS FEBRUARY is a wonderful sketch which looks like..

and I have scrapped a photo of my nephews son for my layout using older papers..

a close up..
 I found my button stash and used a few..

Zebby.
His name is Zebulun, what a great name.. Zebby for short! He is a cutie!

And I have joined in with SCRAP THE GIRLS FEBRUARY which is a fabulous mood board which looks like..

how cool is this!!??

and my layout..
some closer views..
 I made the little white flowers and that gold vine has been in my stash for ages....
Those gold leaves from a broken necklace!!

Sisters.
My oldest sister got some photos done for her 60th birthday last year and this is one of them.. I have had that black lace paper for ages too.. and the papers are Basic Grey Little Black Dress, so it is good to use them!

Thanks for your visit and thank you for the comments you leave me, I know how busy we all are these days so I do appreciate reading your words!

    1. Wow Lizzy, you have created 2 beautiful layouts here, I was going to reply singularly to them, but found I couldn't (hence the deleted post). The STB is so soft and just right for Zebby's photo, the STG is wonderful with the black lace paper. Isn't it great to use the older stash, and yet it doesn't look old.
