It's a Boy Thing {Paper Issues Scraplift Sunday}

It's my turn on the Paper Issues blog today! Here's my post:

Happy Sunday! You know what that means at Paper Issues? It's Scraplift Sunday! We've got a gorgeous layout by Mary-Ann Maldonado to scraplift, which you'll see below. I fell in love with Mary-Ann's layout the minute I saw it and was hoping it would be a Scraplift Sunday challenge! I was excited when my name got picked to scraplift it for the blog. Here's what I made:

And here's the amazing layout by Mary-Ann! I love every little inch of Mary-Ann's layout, from the clever way she made the circles to the big polka dot background to the meandering baker's twine, so I shamelessly scraplifted the whole thing!

I used Simple Stories Li'l Dude, one of my all-time favorite boy collections, and I hope I never run out of it!

The collection is from last year, and there's only one piece, a 3 x 4 elements sheet, left in the Paper Issues shop, but if you like the collection as much as I do, I'd grab a couple of sheets of it because you could make multiple layouts with just that one sheet. I made the tag on the right from an elements sheet.

The colors and images in this collection are just so fun and perfect for boy pages.

I hope you'll come give this challenge a try! Mary-Ann's beautiful design is all laid out for you.
