We Love Charlie

My nephew is so adorable, but we don't get enough picture of him it seems! So I saved up the three pictures I had from this past year and grouped them together on one layout....instead of taking up more space and matting them each individually, I used one large mat color to focus on the main man.
The details on this page are my favorite! A thin rim of scalloped cream paper, the coordinating ribbon (found in my stash) looping through the metal spoke and the coordinating mini eyelets to hold it all down.....

When you only have one, very special photo to scrapbook, try using extra large blocks to off-set the picture, and to equal out the entire page. Here, the title "Darling" is a rub-on, but rather than keeping it "in the box", it is actually going off the square a little onto the other patterned paper, which adds interest and dimension....
The large cut out with ribbon tied around it draws your eye directly to the picture, as it overlaps it a little! Thanks Emily for a great layout idea!

September Giveaway!

This is a GREAT, versatile layout that I whipped up with some great new paper I got this weekend! If you don't want to use it for a baby boy layout, I think it'd make a great dad, brother, or father layout as well!
Everything is included, minus the pictures (and I can change the title if you'd like and give you different white rub on's to accommodate a different name/phrase)! Please remind your friends to enter! Enter by September 10th! Just leave a comment....any comment....
