Just Because

Hi everyone,
This layout has been a work in progress for a few days but today I decided to stick everything down. I'm a bit more reluctant with the simple bright layouts, but its fun when I do the brights still as they are perfect for layouts featuring kids. No doubt, I'll do a lot more brights once my own turn for motherhood arrives.

This layout is featuring my nephew Connor who is now 5. He was about 1 in these photos which are very adorable. The title works well though as it is really a just because layout, with no special story.








I have created this layout with two challenges in mind and managed to combine the sketches. The first is the current A2Z Scraplets July sketch and the other is the Purple Pumpkin July sketch. I have used a cute little Purple Pumpkin button on my layout.

Materials: Pebbles Inc Ever After pp collection; Kaisercraft Devonshire pp collection, Kaisercraft bubblegum hills chipboard; A2Z scraplets title; Purple Pumpkin button; other: Pinwheel flower, journal spot, white paint.

Also, don't forget to come play along at the current Red, White Blue challenge over at Alterd Project Inc!

Thanks for stopping by.
