Brand Spanking New

Ello, Ello, Ello ladies...LOL  TGIF and its reveal time at SOUS again.. Oh I had a blast with this weeks sketch and I think with this layout you can really see how versatile these sketches can be..

 

I really really really wanted to make a masculine layout of my boys and that meant no flowers and no stickles !!:O(

I love the way this layout turned out and so did my boys!!  They are a real hard crowd to please...LOL  :O)

I made this for our Christmas album and figured that all of the gift pages will be done this same way, with no Christmas cuts on them,  but focusing more on the gift and the expressions..

Here are a few close ups and all of the details to making this layout.

I had made a new years resolution to start using cartridges that I haven't used in a long time.. For this layout I used 3 of them: Graphically Speaking, Locker Talk and Indie Art..

 

This is a close up of the upper left side, I had so much fun piecing together the guitar and took me forever to find the musical notes..Finally found them on JOTS (joys of the season) cart.. 

 

I figured with two teenage boys that I really could use the "parental Advisory" cut cause of the lyrics in the music they will be listening to...LOL 

 

A close ups of the bottom right.. The IPODs look great and I was actually really surprised when I found them accidentally on the Locker Talk cart.. I was like "Wow!"...

The photo of my boys is just a temporary solution till the real photo comes back from the developers.. My printer doesn't exactly print the photos high quality..LOL
