Scrap the Boys

Hey there, this is my entry for the December Scrap the Boys.
The theme is to create a Christmas layout using non traditional colours. I decided to stick with a grey colour scheme in keeping with the colour of my sons Christmas shirt. I chose this photo from a couple of years ago.
In a recent shopping spree I seemed to have bought a lot of papers in these colours - never thought I'ld use them for a Christmas layout. I love how on-line challenges challenge you to change things up!

Christmas

Yay, a Christmas page. I don't scrap many Christmas layouts but was inspired by Scrap Sleuth #4 at Scrapz.biz to do one.

This layout features my Sophie proudly showing off her gingerbread house decorating skills Christmas. Each year the I bake two gingerbread houses for the kids decorate. It's fun for the kids and they love the idea of "playing" and creating with lollies.

As for my page I had a great time making my own hexagons and using up a 6x6 paper pad by Crate Paper (my favourite xmas paper of 2011) in addition to adding tons of Kindy Glitz (haven't used it in ages) and diamontes. I love this girly xmasy page. Yay!!!
