Lisa's grungy girl layout with the Boys will Be Boys kit!

Hey Guys - Lisa Novogrodski here again with another layout created with the Scraps of Darkness March Kit "Boys Will Be Boys" Have you seen these awesome papers by Blue Fern - the "Chesterville" collection? Probably the most versatile papers ever! You can use these for a mixed media look and go heavy on paints and sprays or you can use them beautifully with a mix of pattern papers and lots of color! I really loved bringing in the bright orange and blue of the BoBunny "Life in Color" papers.

The Chesterville collection is in the Main Kit and the Life In Color paper are in the Coordinating Paper Add On.

I added a cute photo of my daughter cut in a circle. Love to do some different things with photos rather than always a square or rectangle. 

I just fussy cut the frames and numbers from the Life in Color papers and layered them in a collage fashion. The arrow you see is a Blue Fern Studios Splatter Arrows found in our Elements Add On.  I colored the arrow with the Tim Holtz Salty Ocean Distress Crayon in the Main Kit and then embossed it with my  all time favorite powders Stampendous Encrusted Jewels in Gold. We have some in the shop here! I LOVE the effect these embossing powders create. 

I had a resin corner from Prima and colored it in some art alchemy and added a little bling to the balloon.

Random stamping is another favorite of mine. Here I used the Carabelle Studio Circle Collage Cling Stamp found in the Elements Add On along with some Distress Ink in Marmalade. We also have Distress Ink in the shop!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
