Welcome to the My Heart Belongs to Daddy Blog Hop! Hope everyone is having a great weekend so far! We are looking forward to some warmer weather here in Chicago mixed with a little rain but I don't think anyone cares about the rain as long as it's WARM! Anyway, onto the hop. Hopefully you came here from Pam's blog over at Scrapbook Flair. If not and you want to start at the beginning, stop at Jen's blog, Creative Army Wife. For this hop we were tasked with creating something "manly", LOL! At first I thought I would do a card but I had a really cute photo from my husband's birthday last weekend that I wanted to scrap so I choose to do a layout instead. Sometimes we get scared doing manly or boyish layouts as we aren't sure what colors to use but I find it best to use primary colors are they are so bright and really work well with either gender.
If you have been reading my blog for a while then you know I LOVE to use sketches with my layouts and cards and I chose to use the sketch from this weeks Scrapbook Challenges, sketch 248. Here is what I came up with.
Here is the sketch that the layout is based on:
If you are a scrapper, I recommend checking out their weekly sketch challenges.
Now onto some blog candy, Pink Persimmon has graciously donated these oh so cute banner stamps for my giveaway today!
I just love these stamps and banners are all the rage now in scrapbooking. Just leave me a comment below and I would love if you became a follower if you aren't already. I will accept entries until Monday night and draw a winner Tuesday morning.
Onto your next stop, Jill over at the Scrapoholic. I can't wait to see what she has made for the hop!
Here's a list of the participants in case you get lost along the way.
