Bella Blvd | How Much can a Koala Bare?

Hi Everyone! I just wanted to share with you my layout created for Bella Blvd, using the new Tiny Tots collection.

 

 "How Much Can A Koala Bare?"  

products used: cs - Kaisercraft; pp - Bella Blvd (Tiny Tots); alpha - Bella Blvd (Amorie); other - Bella Blvd: crochet heart, stickers; paper clip; tools - machine stitching, typewriter.

Alright. Before I start, I want to let you know that I know koalas aren't bears!  LOL!  But I couldn't help the play on words, especially if you knew the treatment this favourite toy gets in our home.  And I pretty much fell in love with this little fella as soon as I saw the samples for the new Tiny Tots collections!  Aussie fans will hopefully be ecstatic!

Cam adores his little friend.  His name is 2.2 (two two).  For this to make sense, you need to be four years old.  And when you are four, the number four (4) is your favourite number, therefore it make perfect sense to name your favourite toy 2.2 because 2+2=4.  Simple right?! *grin*

To keep all this journaling contained, I have added a paperclip to the back of a phrase sticker (Tiny Tots: Treasures & Text).  The sticker was then backed with white cardstock trimmed to the sticker size.  It now slips over the photo, preventing the journaling beneath from pushing the photo up and holds it all together.

 

If you would like to see some more inspiration using the new releases over at Bella Blvd, please visit the blog this week!  So much goodness over there!  Thanks for visiting..x

 

 

The Scrapbook Store | March Sketch..

Hi Everyone.  I'm finally realising that it is March already!  (That last week of February really got away from me.)  And with March comes a new sketch from The Scrapbook Store and another chance to win a cool $40 gift voucher plus free postage from the store just for entering!  How exciting is that!

Here is the sketch...

And this is my take on it...

 



"Emergency"

 

products used: cs - kaisercraft; pp - Echo Park (Scoot); alpha - Jillibean Soup alphabeans; other - Echo Park stickers, Greatest View badge/flair; tools - black pen (sharpie). 

All three of my boys have had a phase where they love playing with emergency vehicles.  This is Cams.  His favourite is the fire engine.  I'm convinced it is because it makes the loudest noise!  LOL!

I've added a few layers of paper and stickers from the Scoot collection along the bottom of the photo, as well as a gorgeous badge from Greatest View.  The DT over at The Scrapbook Store have compiled a really diverse collection of layouts just from this one sketch.  I hope to see your version added to the gallery soon too.  Thanks for visiting..x
