YeeHa! Layout & Man Card


A cowboy themed party is what we had for my youngest on his first birthday. I am very biased when I say he made the cutest buckaroo in town.

The layout's colors were derived from The Scrap Doctor's Jolly June Yellow Challenge.


And to not forget the men in my life, I made a masculine yellow card as well for the challenge.  The design is inspired by this bag at SandBoxStudio's Etsy Shop, for the Etsy Inspired Challenge.

YeeHa! Layout: Supplies Used: White Scrapbook Page (Creative Memories) Cardstock: Yellow (Recollections) Patterned Paper: (Creative Memories) Stickers: YeeHa (Hobby Lobby) Other: Black Journaling Pen, Corner Round Punch (Creative Memories)
On Your Birthday Card: Supplies Used: Cardstock: So Saffron (Stampin Up), Green (Close to my Heart) Pattern Paper: (Creative Memories) Rubon: Chit Chat (Stampin Up) Other: Twine (PTI) Tools: Corner Round Punch (Creative Memories), Staples

    oh wowsers!
    I'm totally loving the yellow in this layout. It's making me feel warmer already!
    And that card...... I love how you can take such a simple concept and make it into an absolutely stunning card.
    Amazing :-)

    I love that you are posting layouts, Karen - This one is adorable & your son is a cutie!! Also loving that card and how you used the staples. (Is your sentiment stamped or a rub on, or other? They always look so nice and neat.)
