Boy Layout with Pink Flowers

If you've been following my blog for a bit, you probably know I have one child, a handsome 4 yr. old named Cole.  He is as tough and rugged as a boy comes.  However, I don't let that stop me from using the beautiful and delicate embellishments that call my name:



I used Maggie Holmes chipboard pieces from her open book collection.  







 How do I justify using pink flowers on my son's page you ask?  It's my hobby and I get enjoyment out of all different types of embellishments, including flowers.  Also, my son likes the color pink and also picks flowers for me when he sees them, so flowers belong on his page, right?
Well maybe I was stretching it on that last one, but you get the idea.  

I used a sketch from Scrap Africa.  I really like their sketches and find it easy to make it my own.  



Do you stick to a masculine theme on your boy pages?

  1. I love the colouring and didn't think anything of it until I read your comments. The mint and pink make a gorgeous combination and definitely looks masculine enough on this stunning layout. Thank you for playing at Scrap Africa.
