Take your Place

This week marks the beginning of another series of challenges at Scrapbook Steals. This is the first week of the Amber series (each group of 10 is named after a gemstone).   Every Wednesday, a sketch is posted and I create a layout based on that sketch using any materials I choose.  I link up my layout on the Scrapbook Steals blog in hopes of being chosen by random.org as the weekly winner.  For this week's sketch challenge at Scrapbook Steals, I created another rugged layout featuring my oldest son.  I love the Simple Stories collections and the Awesome line is my go to collection for boy pages. 

I used one of the 4x6 element cards as my title, since I really loved the message.  All of the patterned papers are from the Awesome collection.  I added some painted chipboard, distressed the edges of my kraft paper, and matted it all on a green piece of cardstock.  Easy peasy!  Thanks for looking!
