I really like the look of the sketch over at 'Get Picky' so I decided to play along. The pics are of my friend's little boy! Isn't he just the cutest?!!
I've used the Kaisercraft 'Sweet Nothings' collection for this and although it is mainly a very feminine looking range I tried to 'male' it up a bit. Here is a couple of close ups. I punched the face of one of the little cupids out from the pattern paper and made this cute bottle cap. The covered button is from 'Lovelybug Bits n Bobs' and the doily is from my stash.
As you've probably noticed, I love adding hessian and twine to my male layouts!
I've stuck the dove sticker onto some cardstock, cut around it and then gave it a lift with some foam tape. :)
That's all for today. You have until tomorrow night if you want to give this challenge a go.
Thank you so much for visiting and have a great weekend!
Until next time!

How adorable is this little guy!! You have scrapped these photos perfectly, love how you have taken the colors from your photos into your page and the hessian along the bottom. Stunning!
You HAVE had it hot in Perth lately, haven't you!
I adore the layout - I wouldn't have guessed that the papers came from a girly range. The layout comes off deliciously male and vintage. Love the addition of the hessian!
Thanks for the blog love. Year 12 hey? Wow. We walked past all the new reception kids this morning (it was their first day today) and they all looked so little. That was us last year. It reminded me how fast the last year sped by. Jamie will be in Year 12 before I know it! And I WILL be old ;).
From one Mrs Frisby to another ... gorgeous page ... love how you have put this together.
