Mr. Mustache- Masuculine Scrapbook Layout

So Scott is a ham. He has been since he was a toddler. At the age of 2 he was purposely POSING for pictures. Nothing has changed now that he is an adult. He is still a ham. This time he found a pair of eyeglasses with a mustache in a toy store  in Nashville, Indiana.

Journaling: Ever since you were a toddler you have been a ham in front of a camera!

Tip: The photo was busy and the mustache paper is too. I used the Mind's Eye Chalkboard Frame to draw attention to my son and his antics.

Lasting Memories- Country Charm

How was your week? Did you get a chance to enjoy the countryside?

This week at Lasting Memories we are celebrating Country Charm! Use Country Colors and a Charm!
I  used pictures of the boys at Gatlinburg and even incorporated the theme into my title.

Tip: I had a hard time getting papers to coordinate because the white seemed to harsh. So I inked all the white with Antique Linen Distress Ink and it solved the problem. I also purposely did not sew the border straight because I wanted to give it more of a country look.

Cardstock and Paper: My Mind's Eye Lost & Found 3, Bazzill Cinder, Bo Bunny Country Garden, Nikki Sivils Hiking Trails, Nikki Sivils Summer Lemonade

Embellishments: My Mind's Eye love Enamel Dots, Maya Road Little Birdies Clip, Maya Road Vintage Wood Butterfly,Freckled Fawn Mustache Washi Tape

Monster Layout/Vacation Layout

One of the boys favorite places in Gatlinburg, Tennessee is the Stars Cars Museum.  And as you can probably imagine Dracula's car really fascinated Scott. Personally I am not into horror movies, so this layout was a challenge for me in the first place.But Scott is thrilled with it, so mission accomplished as far as he is concerned. And he thought the full moon behind the pic was, "Just Awesome, Mom!" We aim to please, lol.

Supplies;
Cardstock and Paper: Mind's Eye Lost and Found, Stash
Alphabet Banner: Mind's Eye Lost and Found
Ribbon: Mind's Eye Lost and Found
