I did this layout for a Kim's blog challenge. The challenge here was to use 5 different stamps on a layout, including stamping the back ground. I loved doing this simply because it was a challenge to put together a boys layout, this is mainly because I have plenty of flower stamps that I use often, so I tried something different.
I stamped the background with a Hero Arts Background stamp and did other bits with various acrylic stamps.
One thing I do have is tons of stamps, acrylic as well as block mounted which I hardly ever use, but I will definitely be using them more often now because I really like the effect.
The colour combination is not something I would normally use but got my inspiration from Colour Combos Galore
Thanks for the inspiration Kim, it was great doing my first Scrappy Challenge !!
Here is a picture of the products and some of the tools I used to create this.
{Stamps : Autumn Leaves, Fancy Pants, Wildflower, Imaginisce, Hero Arts Background Stamp}
And here is a bit of scrappy mess. I love creative mess and it feels so good now that I don't have to pack up everything each time I scrap. Before I was confined to the dinning room table, and packed up at each meal time, it eventually became such an issue for me that I didn't scrap much. Now I have a little bit of space in the spare room and loving it.

Oh wow Bee!! I love this...I love how you used the two strong colours (yellow & charcoal) together.
Great take on the challenge...I'll post them all tomorrow!
Thanks so much for joining in...the whole challenge thing lost momentum when I got sick...& people seem to be a bit out of the loop right now. I was getting an average of 9-11 entries each week which made things so much fun.
Hopefully things will pick up again.
Like the new blog look...very 'jooj' if that's how you spell it.
Chat soon.
Hugs
Kim!
