The Scrapbook Boutique - September Challenge "Teddy"

While scouring google for challenge blogs I discovered The Scrapbook Boutique and the September Challenge appealed to me immediately. The colours were so cute.

I'm really happy with this layout. I was inspired by the circle tag and the blue twine and built my layout with the corresponding colours.

"Cooper heart's Teddy"

Materials:

Merci (Red patterned paper), Creative Memories (CM) It's a boy paper pack, ribbon, gesso, modelling paste, casablanca stencil, black ink, Stampin Up stamp, twine, Kaisercraft sticker, chipboard letters, Kaiser Colour "Sea Breeze", glitter glue, CM sticker and black pen

Once Upon A Sketch - September "Hiding"

I decided to play along at Once Upon a Sketch this month and used some of the new Kaisercraft "Mix & Match" range to inspire me. 

I managed to snap these super cute pics of my son Cooper on my phone before he lost interest and wandered off to play with something else. The blanket is pink so I used black and white photos to make it more masculine.

"My Little Indian" - A mixed media page

This page was my entry for our local scrap booking store's September monthly challenge. The last couple had been quite feminine and I asked the owner if she could do a more masculine paper so I could scrap my boys. It was great that she did, but I still found it quite challenging.

The supplies we were given were:

Paper - SEI: Seasoned "Taste Buds", blue cardstock, chipboard cogs and ribbon.

Additional Materials:

Gesso, plasterers tape, Adirondack Color Wash "Espresso", Modelling paste, Brown cardstock, Stampin Up "Soft Suede", Kaisercraft "Bow & Arrow" collectables, Buttons, Kaisercraft "December 25th" Jewels, Kaisercraft little letters, Creative Memories (CM) Sticker, Tim Holtz "Stars" stencil, Cricut & Close to my Heart (CTMH) Artiste Cartridge
