LYNNE FORSYTHE
What Dad wouldn't want a Layout to Celebrate Father's Day??!?!?
As I am still on my quest of creating "Manly Layouts"
I chose to use the Quick Quotes Serendipity to create
a layout of my ever changing Grandson....Izaya
Now I have to say....
the Blue and Purple papers are gorgeous...
but for a boy layout??
The way I resolved the "color" issue....
was to add Kraft color, by use of
paper...
Petaloo ~ Textured Elements ~ Burlap Flowers
and
Quick Quotes ~ Chipboard Laser Diecuts ~ Frames
I think it was the PERFECT solution
HOW about YOU??
A few Penny Lane ~ Forget me Nots ~ Robin's Egg Blue
and a couple of
Printed Darjeeling ~ Wild Mini Blossoms ~ Aqua
nestled in the mix!
Accented with die cut Ivy Leaves.
How cute is the picture of Izaya....
with a little bit of mischief in his eyes!!?!?!?
So....Did I make it work??

Love your layout. The kraft paper really changes the look of the page. The flowers and burlap are perfect for your layout.

Lynne I agree, blues and purples are great for boys. And that touch of green and brown. Perfect. What a cutie!!!

Love your layout and I think blue and purple are fine for boys but adding the frames and the burlap flowers kicked it up a notch. Your grandson is a cutie. :)
