Its about the boy July 1 challenge Red White and Blue.

I had some time to work on a page today. Here is a page for About a Boy.  I used some Pink Paislee. I fussy cut the paper for embellishments and toned down the busy papers with a white wash of gesso.  This is my Nephew Asher minutes before we head out the door to a Halloween party at Disney.  My sisters family were "Things" My Family were minions.  I also used some washi chevron tape too.  If you get some creative time check out the It's about a Boy Challenge. http://itsabouttheboys.blogspot.ca

I am also submitting page at Scrap our Stash Red white and blue and use at least 3 star embellishments I made them with the PP.

    I love this, Connie! Your LO is gorgeous and I love that white washing. When we went to Orlando, my kids wanted Thing 1 and Thing 2 sweatshirts! I'm a sucker for Suess. Thanks for playing with us at AAB!

    A "Thing Four" this cute would never be sent home in the Cat and the Hat. Sally and the boy would have found a way to keep him when mother got home. :)

    Nice job with the use of gesso, whitewashing bold colors ends up in a great result. Thanks for joining us at About a Boy!
