August XOXO Lift - Bucket Boy!

I loved the sketch Wendy used for our August Lift! I had three pictures waiting to be scrapped of my busy little man! I ended up going with the two photos just like the sketch, since one was a little blurry! Had some fun papers added to the photos that reminded me of a old time gas attendant!

I titled the page "Bucket Boy" since at the time that was a daily event. My son would explore behind our house see what he can collect to pretend he is on some type of job using his new finds. My Brother-in-Law drives big rigs and there is a number tractor trailers, parts, supplies and etc. behind his house which is next door to us.

Here is Wendy's page for this month's challenge:

There is still half the month to go to get your challenge done and linked up for your chance to be a Guest DT!

Kim's XOXO Scrap-Lift July...

Hi Friends!  DT Kimberly here to give you my lift of GDT Phillis layout this month.  I really loved how she stapled the string and I did the same on my layout.  I also used her basic design only moving a boarder to the side of my layout instead of across the top.

I hope we can inspire you to join in this months challenge here @ XOXO!  You will have until the end of the month to get your layout entered and become the next GDT!

"Nerves of Steel" - Michelle

This month Joanne's page got me inspired to get my son's 4th birthday photos scrapped. My son will be 5 in September! I have carried these photos with me to two retreats and never got the motivation to do them!

Used heat embossing, which is something that I haven't done in awhile. The motorcycle, diamond plate, tire track, little star circles, wing and tag were all heat embossed. Added some distressing using a paper edger and ink!

COME ON AND JOIN US! THERE IS STILL TIME TO PLAY ALONG!
