Challenge for Your Story

Karen at Karen's-Kake-Krafts is having a great giveaway!!  You could win a Your Story machine!  All you have to do is create a baby boy layout.  So here's my entry.

I used 8x8" paper (little stars and moons in case you can't tell).  Using the New Arrival cart,  I cut It's a Boy circle at 2-1/2" I think, and had to make the "charm" larger since the measurement includes the top part (not too visible, but it's behind the ribbon; like the top of an ornament).  The stork is also cut at 2-1/2" and layered.  Then I punched 2 scalloped circles (they're 2") and put them together for a background for the stork.  Pop dotted the stork on the circles.  Put polka dots on him and the charm with markers.  The charm is also popped up. Cut the picture mats, too, from New Arrival at 3-1/2" and then added the corner adornments (EK punch).  It's hard for me to put together a layout without working with the actual pictures, but I think this gives you the idea of what I'm going for.  I will probably use this for myself and once I place the pictures, I think I'll add more corner adornments to the other side of the pictures and then some bling in the empty space that's left.

There's still time to enter--August 10 is the deadline.  Visit Karen's blog (link above) for details.  And thanks, Karen for a chance at your terrific giveaway!!
