Can you believe it, a post with only boy LO's!! What has gotten into me? I always find it far more challenging to do a masculine page. It always comes down to how I am going to embellish the pages and I find it hard to give it that touch of my style without compromising the boyishness of the page. I can sit and dwell on these boy pages for a very long time, moving the tiniest details from one spot to the next, hoping that it will just work at some point. With feminine LO's it is just so easy to bung a flower or a flourish on it to finish it off! It just makes me realise how few boyish embellishments are in my stash!
This page was for the Colour Combos blog, CCG 116! I still haven't missed a combo since I started, even when I find it a challenge, I keep going as I believe the challenge of it helps to extend your creative side. As can be seen by the colours that I had to use, it had to be a boy LO!! I was forced I tell you! FORCED to do boy pages.
This next one was for the Prima Blog. Just love the bright happy colours of this layout and the lovely Prima decorative edge paper. I am also in love with their little collage stamps, they are wonderfully versatile and a great option when embellishing boy pages!
Lastly, this was another one for the Prima site but was for their Build A Page sketch at the end of the month. The fabulous sketch was provided by Anam and probably lent itself to a feminine LO but I couldnt resist playing with circles of circles! Also just love the fact that the viola felt I used to embellish this has circular elements in it as well! I have used all 3 of those in the packet, just loved them. In fact I love all their new devines that they have just released, great for those boy pages!
Funny things that happened this week.... my oldest 2 boys are absolutely car crazy right now, love nothing more than to watch top Gear or to play spot the car while driving to school! They have taken to a new game now.... get Kaitlyn to say as many different car names as possible. This is the conversations I hear as I drive the car....'Kaitlyn, say Hummer....ummer! Porsche....orshe! Ferarri...fari! Mercedes....merdes! I cant even remember all the different car names they had her saying but it was Oh so Cute!
Far cuter than when I tell her off, she now turns around and tells me "stop it! Not nice!!" No you stop it Kaitlyn, you are being rude". Miss K "stop it!!" Add to this an outstretched hand and a very determined look on her face! Defiance, you got to laugh to ease the frustration! TFL!
OMGosh Janine, sounds like you have a couple of rev heads on your hands there!!! Love it!!!! Top Gear is such a cool show! Love Miss K's defiance as well!
Now, as for the layouts - you rock boy layouts!! These 3 layouts are fabulous! Have a great weekend!

Boy layouts - they are fantastic especially the one for CCG. I thought you said you didn't like it - what the ?? Its gorgeous. Anyhow Miss K is rather cute with her words, and when her and Miss M get together it should be quite funny. Talk about two little chatterbox Miss's. - lol.
