My Precious Boy Layout

Designed by Melanie Coombs

Scrapbooking Page - My Precious Boy

Materials:

Basic Grey ‘Color Me Silly’ paper pack
Bright yellow & red cardstock
Chipboard tag (very large) - or cut a tag from cardstock
Basic Grey Undressed Chipboard alphabet
Variety of different alphabet stamps
Red & black ink pads
Co-ordinating Ribbon
Photograph - 5 x 7"
Adhesives
Scissors/paper trimmer

Instructions:

Use a sheet of bright red cardstock as the base of your layout.
From the Basic Grey ‘Color Me Silly’ paper pack, select the sheets named Wonder, Journey and Doodle. Using different size bowls, cups, etc., trace three different sizes of circles on the non-patterned side of the papers (please see photo for size ideas). Cut out the three circles and adhere to your layout, approximately as shown.
Take your chipboard tag and trace it on the reverse side of the ‘Wonder’ paper. Cut out and adhere to the face of the tag. Use fine scissors to trim off any excess paper. Cut a strip of red cardstock (about 1 inch high) and adhere to the centre of the tag, as shown. Use scissors to trim off any excess paper. Cut a slightly smaller strip from the ‘Journey’ paper and adhere to the centre of the first strip, so a border of red shows on the top and bottom. Set aside.
Use the Basic Grey Undressed Chipboard letters for the first word of the title. Ink the letters with the red ink pad and allow time to dry. Then, adhere the letters in the position shown. For the second word of the title (placed on the centre strip) you can use die cut letters or stamp the word. I used my Quickutz for this word. Use alphabet stamps and the black ink pad for the third word in the title and stamp in the position shown. Tie a length of the striped ribbon through the hole in the top of the tag. Set aside finished tag.
Mat a 5x7 photo on the bright yellow Bazzill cardstock. Trim around the edges, leaving a small border of the cardstock framing the photo. Adhere on top of the circles on your layout, approximately in the position shown. Adhere the finished tag right next to the photo, being sure to centre it.
Cut three small strips, measuring approx. 2 inches long and a half inch high. Using a different set of alphabet stamps than you used on the tag, stamp the month the photo was taken on the first strip, the day on the second strip and the year on the third strip. Adhere to your layout as shown.
